How to work it out

  1. Divide the part by the whole: 90 ÷ 17 = 5.294118
  2. Multiply by 100: 5.294118 × 100 = 529.4118%
  3. Check: Work backwards: 529.4118% of 17 is 5.294118 × 17 = 90.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 90/17 = p/100, so p = 90 × 100 ÷ 17 = 529.4118%. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =90/17*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.
