How to work it out

  1. Divide the part by the whole: 100 ÷ 15 = 6.666667
  2. Multiply by 100: 6.666667 × 100 = 666.6667%
  3. Check: Work backwards: 666.6667% of 15 is 6.666667 × 15 = 100.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 100/15 = p/100, so p = 100 × 100 ÷ 15 = 666.6667%. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =100/15*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

100 is more than the whole amount (6.667 times as much) of 15. 100 goes past 15 by 85, which is another 566.6667% on top of the whole.

Targets: selling 100 items against a target of 15 means reaching 666.6667% of the target, beating it by 566.6667%.

Turning it around

If you know that 100 is 666.6667% of a number, you can get that number back: 100 ÷ 6.666667 = 15. And 15 as a percentage of 100 is 15%, a different answer, because the whole has changed.
