How to work it out

  1. Divide the part by the whole: 76 ÷ 27 = 2.814815
  2. Multiply by 100: 2.814815 × 100 = 281.4815%
  3. Check: Work backwards: 281.4815% of 27 is 2.814815 × 27 = 76.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 76/27 = p/100, so p = 76 × 100 ÷ 27 = 281.4815%. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =76/27*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.
