How to work it out

  1. Divide the part by the whole: 215 ÷ 300 = 0.716667
  2. Multiply by 100: 0.716667 × 100 = 71.6667%
  3. Check: Work backwards: 71.6667% of 300 is 0.716667 × 300 = 215.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 215/300 = p/100, so p = 215 × 100 ÷ 300 = 71.6667%. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =215/300*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.
