How to work it out

  1. Divide the part by the whole: 91 ÷ 72 = 1.263889
  2. Multiply by 100: 1.263889 × 100 = 126.3889%
  3. Check: Work backwards: 126.3889% of 72 is 1.263889 × 72 = 91.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 91/72 = p/100, so p = 91 × 100 ÷ 72 = 126.3889%. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =91/72*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.
