How to work it out

  1. Divide the part by the whole: 8 ÷ 52 = 0.153846
  2. Multiply by 100: 0.153846 × 100 = 15.3846%
  3. Check: Work backwards: 15.3846% of 52 is 0.153846 × 52 = 8.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 8/52 = p/100, so p = 8 × 100 ÷ 52 = 15.3846%. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =8/52*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.
