How to work it out
- Divide the part by the whole: 200 ÷ 1000 = 0.2
- Multiply by 100: 0.2 × 100 = 20%
- Check: Work backwards: 20% of 1000 is 0.2 × 1000 = 200.
Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 200/1000 = p/100, so p = 200 × 100 ÷ 1000 = 20%. Both methods always give the same answer.
In a spreadsheet: =200/1000*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
200 is between a tenth and a quarter of 1000. The part that is left, 800, is the other 80%.
Test scores: 200 correct answers out of 1000 is a score of 20%, which on a common US grading scale is an F.
Turning it around
If you know that 200 is 20% of a number, you can get that number back: 200 ÷ 0.2 = 1000. And 1000 as a percentage of 200 is 500%, a different answer, because the whole has changed.
