How to work it out

  1. Divide the part by the whole: 140 ÷ 400 = 0.35
  2. Multiply by 100: 0.35 × 100 = 35%
  3. Check: Work backwards: 35% of 400 is 0.35 × 400 = 140.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 140/400 = p/100, so p = 140 × 100 ÷ 400 = 35%. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =140/400*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

140 is between a quarter and a half of 400. The part that is left, 260, is the other 65%.

Test scores: 140 correct answers out of 400 is a score of 35%, which on a common US grading scale is an F.

Turning it around
