How to work it out
- Divide the part by the whole: 1000 ÷ 600 = 1.666667
- Multiply by 100: 1.666667 × 100 = 166.6667%
- Check: Work backwards: 166.6667% of 600 is 1.666667 × 600 = 1000.
Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 1000/600 = p/100, so p = 1000 × 100 ÷ 600 = 166.6667%. Both methods always give the same answer.
In a spreadsheet: =1000/600*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
1000 is more than the whole amount (1.667 times as much) of 600. 1000 goes past 600 by 400, which is another 66.6667% on top of the whole.
Targets: selling 1000 items against a target of 600 means reaching 166.6667% of the target, beating it by 66.6667%.
