How to work it out

  1. Divide the part by the whole: 96 ÷ 36 = 2.666667
  2. Multiply by 100: 2.666667 × 100 = 266.6667%
  3. Check: Work backwards: 266.6667% of 36 is 2.666667 × 36 = 96.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 96/36 = p/100, so p = 96 × 100 ÷ 36 = 266.6667%. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =96/36*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
