How to work it out

  1. Divide the part by the whole: 73 ÷ 34 = 2.147059
  2. Multiply by 100: 2.147059 × 100 = 214.7059%
  3. Check: Work backwards: 214.7059% of 34 is 2.147059 × 34 = 73.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 73/34 = p/100, so p = 73 × 100 ÷ 34 = 214.7059%. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =73/34*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.
