How to work it out

  1. Divide the part by the whole: 10 ÷ 200 = 0.05
  2. Multiply by 100: 0.05 × 100 = 5%
  3. Check: Work backwards: 5% of 200 is 0.05 × 200 = 10.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 10/200 = p/100, so p = 10 × 100 ÷ 200 = 5%. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =10/200*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.

What the result means

10 is less than a tenth of 200. The part that is left, 190, is the other 95%.

Test scores: 10 correct answers out of 200 is a score of 5%, which on a common US grading scale is an F.

Turning it around

If you know that 10 is 5% of a number, you can get that number back: 10 ÷ 0.05 = 200. And 200 as a percentage of 10 is 2,000%, a different answer, because the whole has changed.
