How to work it out

  1. Divide the part by the whole: 68 ÷ 37 = 1.837838
  2. Multiply by 100: 1.837838 × 100 = 183.7838%
  3. Check: Work backwards: 183.7838% of 37 is 1.837838 × 37 = 68.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 68/37 = p/100, so p = 68 × 100 ÷ 37 = 183.7838%. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =68/37*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.
