How to work it out

  1. Divide the part by the whole: 66 ÷ 83 = 0.795181
  2. Multiply by 100: 0.795181 × 100 = 79.5181%
  3. Check: Work backwards: 79.5181% of 83 is 0.795181 × 83 = 66.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 66/83 = p/100, so p = 66 × 100 ÷ 83 = 79.5181%. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =66/83*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.
