How to work it out

  1. Divide the part by the whole: 78 ÷ 37 = 2.108108
  2. Multiply by 100: 2.108108 × 100 = 210.8108%
  3. Check: Work backwards: 210.8108% of 37 is 2.108108 × 37 = 78.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 78/37 = p/100, so p = 78 × 100 ÷ 37 = 210.8108%. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =78/37*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.
