How to work it out

  1. Divide the part by the whole: 87 ÷ 26 = 3.346154
  2. Multiply by 100: 3.346154 × 100 = 334.6154%
  3. Check: Work backwards: 334.6154% of 26 is 3.346154 × 26 = 87.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 87/26 = p/100, so p = 87 × 100 ÷ 26 = 334.6154%. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =87/26*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.
