How to work it out

  1. Divide the part by the whole: 250 ÷ 115 = 2.173913
  2. Multiply by 100: 2.173913 × 100 = 217.3913%
  3. Check: Work backwards: 217.3913% of 115 is 2.173913 × 115 = 250.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 250/115 = p/100, so p = 250 × 100 ÷ 115 = 217.3913%. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =250/115*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.
