How to work it out

  1. Divide the part by the whole: 68 ÷ 82 = 0.829268
  2. Multiply by 100: 0.829268 × 100 = 82.9268%
  3. Check: Work backwards: 82.9268% of 82 is 0.829268 × 82 = 68.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 68/82 = p/100, so p = 68 × 100 ÷ 82 = 82.9268%. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =68/82*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.
