How to work it out

  1. Divide the part by the whole: 88 ÷ 28 = 3.142857
  2. Multiply by 100: 3.142857 × 100 = 314.2857%
  3. Check: Work backwards: 314.2857% of 28 is 3.142857 × 28 = 88.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 88/28 = p/100, so p = 88 × 100 ÷ 28 = 314.2857%. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =88/28*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.
