Question from Joanne:

Could you show me how to work out what percentage £2,407.33 is of £9,352.41 in very basic terms.
Thank you very much
Joanne

Joanne,

Suppose I change the question slightly and ask you what fraction is £2,407.33 of £9,352.41? The answer is £2,407.33/£9,352.41 = 0.2574. To express this fraction as a percentage multiply by 100. Thus £2,407.33 is 25.74% of £9,352.41.
