How to work it out

  1. Divide the part by the whole: 9 ÷ 97 = 0.092784
  2. Multiply by 100: 0.092784 × 100 = 9.2784%
  3. Check: Work backwards: 9.2784% of 97 is 0.092784 × 97 = 9.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 9/97 = p/100, so p = 9 × 100 ÷ 97 = 9.2784%. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =9/97*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 less than a tenth of 97. The part that is left, 88, is the other 90.7216%.

Test scores: 9 correct answers out of 97 is a score of 9.2784%, which on a common US grading scale is an F.
