How to work it out

  1. Divide the part by the whole: 250 ÷ 165 = 1.515152
  2. Multiply by 100: 1.515152 × 100 = 151.5152%
  3. Check: Work backwards: 151.5152% of 165 is 1.515152 × 165 = 250.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 250/165 = p/100, so p = 250 × 100 ÷ 165 = 151.5152%. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =250/165*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.
