How to work it out

  1. Divide the part by the whole: 73 ÷ 23 = 3.173913
  2. Multiply by 100: 3.173913 × 100 = 317.3913%
  3. Check: Work backwards: 317.3913% of 23 is 3.173913 × 23 = 73.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 73/23 = p/100, so p = 73 × 100 ÷ 23 = 317.3913%. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =73/23*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.
