How to work it out

  1. Divide the part by the whole: 25 ÷ 21 = 1.190476
  2. Multiply by 100: 1.190476 × 100 = 119.0476%
  3. Check: Work backwards: 119.0476% of 21 is 1.190476 × 21 = 25.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 25/21 = p/100, so p = 25 × 100 ÷ 21 = 119.0476%. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =25/21*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

Targets: selling 25 items against a target of 21 means reaching 119.0476% of the target, beating it by 19.0476%.

Turning it around

If you know that 25 is 119.0476% of a number, you can get that number back: 25 ÷ 1.190476 = 21. And 21 as a percentage of 25 is 84%, a different answer, because the whole has changed.
