How to work it out

  1. Divide the part by the whole: 88 ÷ 37 = 2.378378
  2. Multiply by 100: 2.378378 × 100 = 237.8378%
  3. Check: Work backwards: 237.8378% of 37 is 2.378378 × 37 = 88.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 88/37 = p/100, so p = 88 × 100 ÷ 37 = 237.8378%. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =88/37*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.
