How to work it out

  1. Divide the part by the whole: 99 ÷ 38 = 2.605263
  2. Multiply by 100: 2.605263 × 100 = 260.5263%
  3. Check: Work backwards: 260.5263% of 38 is 2.605263 × 38 = 99.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 99/38 = p/100, so p = 99 × 100 ÷ 38 = 260.5263%. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =99/38*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.
