How to work it out

  1. Divide the part by the whole: 88 ÷ 68 = 1.294118
  2. Multiply by 100: 1.294118 × 100 = 129.4118%
  3. Check: Work backwards: 129.4118% of 68 is 1.294118 × 68 = 88.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 88/68 = p/100, so p = 88 × 100 ÷ 68 = 129.4118%. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =88/68*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.
