How to work it out

  1. Divide the part by the whole: 88 ÷ 62 = 1.419355
  2. Multiply by 100: 1.419355 × 100 = 141.9355%
  3. Check: Work backwards: 141.9355% of 62 is 1.419355 × 62 = 88.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 88/62 = p/100, so p = 88 × 100 ÷ 62 = 141.9355%. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =88/62*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.
