How to work it out

  1. Divide the part by the whole: 74 ÷ 38 = 1.947368
  2. Multiply by 100: 1.947368 × 100 = 194.7368%
  3. Check: Work backwards: 194.7368% of 38 is 1.947368 × 38 = 74.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 74/38 = p/100, so p = 74 × 100 ÷ 38 = 194.7368%. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =74/38*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.
