How to work it out

  1. Divide the part by the whole: 82 ÷ 97 = 0.845361
  2. Multiply by 100: 0.845361 × 100 = 84.5361%
  3. Check: Work backwards: 84.5361% of 97 is 0.845361 × 97 = 82.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 82/97 = p/100, so p = 82 × 100 ÷ 97 = 84.5361%. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =82/97*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.
