How to work it out
- Divide the part by the whole: 180 ÷ 300 = 0.6
- Multiply by 100: 0.6 × 100 = 60%
- Check: Work backwards: 60% of 300 is 0.6 × 300 = 180.
Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 180/300 = p/100, so p = 180 × 100 ÷ 300 = 60%. Both methods always give the same answer.
In a spreadsheet: =180/300*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.
