How to work it out

  1. Divide the part by the whole: 22 ÷ 15 = 1.466667
  2. Multiply by 100: 1.466667 × 100 = 146.6667%
  3. Check: Work backwards: 146.6667% of 15 is 1.466667 × 15 = 22.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 22/15 = p/100, so p = 22 × 100 ÷ 15 = 146.6667%. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =22/15*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

22 is more than the whole amount (1.467 times as much) of 15. 22 goes past 15 by 7, which is another 46.6667% on top of the whole.

Targets: selling 22 items against a target of 15 means reaching 146.6667% of the target, beating it by 46.6667%.

Turning it around
