How to work it out

  1. Divide the part by the whole: 88 ÷ 84 = 1.047619
  2. Multiply by 100: 1.047619 × 100 = 104.7619%
  3. Check: Work backwards: 104.7619% of 84 is 1.047619 × 84 = 88.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 88/84 = p/100, so p = 88 × 100 ÷ 84 = 104.7619%. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =88/84*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.
