How to work it out

  1. Divide the part by the whole: 160 ÷ 250 = 0.64
  2. Multiply by 100: 0.64 × 100 = 64%
  3. Check: Work backwards: 64% of 250 is 0.64 × 250 = 160.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 160/250 = p/100, so p = 160 × 100 ÷ 250 = 64%. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =160/250*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

160 is more than half but less than three quarters of 250. The part that is left, 90, is the other 36%.

Test scores: 160 correct answers out of 250 is a score of 64%, which on a common US grading scale is a D.

Turning it around

If you know that 160 is 64% of a number, you can get that number back: 160 ÷ 0.64 = 250. And 250 as a percentage of 160 is 156.25%, a different answer, because the whole has changed.
