How to work it out

  1. Divide the part by the whole: 96 ÷ 81 = 1.185185
  2. Multiply by 100: 1.185185 × 100 = 118.5185%
  3. Check: Work backwards: 118.5185% of 81 is 1.185185 × 81 = 96.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 96/81 = p/100, so p = 96 × 100 ÷ 81 = 118.5185%. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =96/81*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.
