How to work it out

  1. Divide the part by the whole: 77 ÷ 27 = 2.851852
  2. Multiply by 100: 2.851852 × 100 = 285.1852%
  3. Check: Work backwards: 285.1852% of 27 is 2.851852 × 27 = 77.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 77/27 = p/100, so p = 77 × 100 ÷ 27 = 285.1852%. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =77/27*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.
