How to work it out

  1. Divide the part by the whole: 98 ÷ 23 = 4.26087
  2. Multiply by 100: 4.26087 × 100 = 426.087%
  3. Check: Work backwards: 426.087% of 23 is 4.26087 × 23 = 98.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 98/23 = p/100, so p = 98 × 100 ÷ 23 = 426.087%. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =98/23*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.
