How to work it out

  1. Divide the part by the whole: 85 ÷ 76 = 1.118421
  2. Multiply by 100: 1.118421 × 100 = 111.8421%
  3. Check: Work backwards: 111.8421% of 76 is 1.118421 × 76 = 85.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 85/76 = p/100, so p = 85 × 100 ÷ 76 = 111.8421%. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =85/76*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.
