How to work it out

  1. Divide the part by the whole: 8 ÷ 61 = 0.131148
  2. Multiply by 100: 0.131148 × 100 = 13.1148%
  3. Check: Work backwards: 13.1148% of 61 is 0.131148 × 61 = 8.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 8/61 = p/100, so p = 8 × 100 ÷ 61 = 13.1148%. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =8/61*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.
