How to work it out

  1. Divide the part by the whole: 150 ÷ 140 = 1.071429
  2. Multiply by 100: 1.071429 × 100 = 107.1429%
  3. Check: Work backwards: 107.1429% of 140 is 1.071429 × 140 = 150.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 150/140 = p/100, so p = 150 × 100 ÷ 140 = 107.1429%. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =150/140*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 (1.071 times as much) of 140. 150 goes past 140 by 10, which is another 7.1429% on top of the whole.

Targets: selling 150 items against a target of 140 means reaching 107.1429% of the target, beating it by 7.1429%.

Turning it around

If you know that 150 is 107.1429% of a number, you can get that number back: 150 ÷ 1.071429 = 140. And 140 as a percentage of 150 is 93.3333%, a different answer, because the whole has changed.
