How to work it out

  1. Divide the part by the whole: 150 ÷ 105 = 1.428571
  2. Multiply by 100: 1.428571 × 100 = 142.8571%
  3. Check: Work backwards: 142.8571% of 105 is 1.428571 × 105 = 150.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 150/105 = p/100, so p = 150 × 100 ÷ 105 = 142.8571%. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =150/105*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

150 is more than the whole amount (1.429 times as much) of 105. 150 goes past 105 by 45, which is another 42.8571% on top of the whole.

Targets: selling 150 items against a target of 105 means reaching 142.8571% of the target, beating it by 42.8571%.

Turning it around

If you know that 150 is 142.8571% of a number, you can get that number back: 150 ÷ 1.428571 = 105. And 105 as a percentage of 150 is 70%, a different answer, because the whole has changed.
