How to work it out

  1. Divide the part by the whole: 96 ÷ 85 = 1.129412
  2. Multiply by 100: 1.129412 × 100 = 112.9412%
  3. Check: Work backwards: 112.9412% of 85 is 1.129412 × 85 = 96.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 96/85 = p/100, so p = 96 × 100 ÷ 85 = 112.9412%. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =96/85*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.
