How to work it out

  1. Divide the part by the whole: 75 ÷ 51 = 1.470588
  2. Multiply by 100: 1.470588 × 100 = 147.0588%
  3. Check: Work backwards: 147.0588% of 51 is 1.470588 × 51 = 75.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 75/51 = p/100, so p = 75 × 100 ÷ 51 = 147.0588%. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =75/51*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.
