How to work it out

  1. Divide the part by the whole: 88 ÷ 58 = 1.517241
  2. Multiply by 100: 1.517241 × 100 = 151.7241%
  3. Check: Work backwards: 151.7241% of 58 is 1.517241 × 58 = 88.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 88/58 = p/100, so p = 88 × 100 ÷ 58 = 151.7241%. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =88/58*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.
