How to work it out

  1. Divide the part by the whole: 75 ÷ 56 = 1.339286
  2. Multiply by 100: 1.339286 × 100 = 133.9286%
  3. Check: Work backwards: 133.9286% of 56 is 1.339286 × 56 = 75.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 75/56 = p/100, so p = 75 × 100 ÷ 56 = 133.9286%. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =75/56*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.
