Percentage means "part of 100".

So if you wanted to know what percentage 55 was of 86

You start by dividing the "whole" - that is 86 into the" bit you have" - that is 55.

55/86=0.6395348837209302

You then multiply the answer by 100

0.6395348837209302 * 100 = 63.95348837209302

Which rounds to 63.95%
