How to work it out
- Divide the part by the whole: 9 ÷ 25 = 0.36
- Multiply by 100: 0.36 × 100 = 36%
- Check: Work backwards: 36% of 25 is 0.36 × 25 = 9.
Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 9/25 = p/100, so p = 9 × 100 ÷ 25 = 36%. Both methods always give the same answer.
In a spreadsheet: =9/25*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.
