How to work it out

  1. Divide the part by the whole: 74 ÷ 31 = 2.387097
  2. Multiply by 100: 2.387097 × 100 = 238.7097%
  3. Check: Work backwards: 238.7097% of 31 is 2.387097 × 31 = 74.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 74/31 = p/100, so p = 74 × 100 ÷ 31 = 238.7097%. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =74/31*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.
