How to work it out

  1. Divide the part by the whole: 75 ÷ 76 = 0.986842
  2. Multiply by 100: 0.986842 × 100 = 98.6842%
  3. Check: Work backwards: 98.6842% of 76 is 0.986842 × 76 = 75.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 75/76 = p/100, so p = 75 × 100 ÷ 76 = 98.6842%. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =75/76*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.
