How to work it out

  1. Divide the part by the whole: 80 ÷ 17 = 4.705882
  2. Multiply by 100: 4.705882 × 100 = 470.5882%
  3. Check: Work backwards: 470.5882% of 17 is 4.705882 × 17 = 80.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 80/17 = p/100, so p = 80 × 100 ÷ 17 = 470.5882%. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =80/17*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.
