How to work it out

  1. Divide the part by the whole: 9 ÷ 61 = 0.147541
  2. Multiply by 100: 0.147541 × 100 = 14.7541%
  3. Check: Work backwards: 14.7541% of 61 is 0.147541 × 61 = 9.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 9/61 = p/100, so p = 9 × 100 ÷ 61 = 14.7541%. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =9/61*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.

What the result means

9 is between a tenth and a quarter of 61. The part that is left, 52, is the other 85.2459%.
