How to work it out

  1. Divide the part by the whole: 79 ÷ 14 = 5.642857
  2. Multiply by 100: 5.642857 × 100 = 564.2857%
  3. Check: Work backwards: 564.2857% of 14 is 5.642857 × 14 = 79.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 79/14 = p/100, so p = 79 × 100 ÷ 14 = 564.2857%. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =79/14*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.
