How to work it out

  1. Divide the part by the whole: 66 ÷ 70 = 0.942857
  2. Multiply by 100: 0.942857 × 100 = 94.2857%
  3. Check: Work backwards: 94.2857% of 70 is 0.942857 × 70 = 66.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 66/70 = p/100, so p = 66 × 100 ÷ 70 = 94.2857%. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =66/70*100. Dividing the wrong way round (whole ÷ part) gives a different answer. The number after “of” is always the whole, so it goes on the bottom.
