How to work it out

  1. Divide the part by the whole: 88 ÷ 61 = 1.442623
  2. Multiply by 100: 1.442623 × 100 = 144.2623%
  3. Check: Work backwards: 144.2623% of 61 is 1.442623 × 61 = 88.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 88/61 = p/100, so p = 88 × 100 ÷ 61 = 144.2623%. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =88/61*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.
