How to work it out
- Divide the part by the whole: 200 ÷ 125 = 1.6
- Multiply by 100: 1.6 × 100 = 160%
- Check: Work backwards: 160% of 125 is 1.6 × 125 = 200.
Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 200/125 = p/100, so p = 200 × 100 ÷ 125 = 160%. Both methods always give the same answer.
In a spreadsheet: =200/125*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 more than the whole amount (1.6 times as much) of 125. 200 goes past 125 by 75, which is another 60% on top of the whole.

Turning it around
If you know that 200 is 160% of a number, you can get that number back: 200 ÷ 1.6 = 125. And 125 as a percentage of 200 is 62.5%, a different answer, because the whole has changed.
