How to work it out

  1. Divide the part by the whole: 125 ÷ 150 = 0.833333
  2. Multiply by 100: 0.833333 × 100 = 83.3333%
  3. Check: Work backwards: 83.3333% of 150 is 0.833333 × 150 = 125.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 125/150 = p/100, so p = 125 × 100 ÷ 150 = 83.3333%. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =125/150*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.
