How to work it out

  1. Divide the part by the whole: 82 ÷ 56 = 1.464286
  2. Multiply by 100: 1.464286 × 100 = 146.4286%
  3. Check: Work backwards: 146.4286% of 56 is 1.464286 × 56 = 82.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 82/56 = p/100, so p = 82 × 100 ÷ 56 = 146.4286%. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =82/56*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.
