How to work it out

  1. Divide the part by the whole: 250 ÷ 185 = 1.351351
  2. Multiply by 100: 1.351351 × 100 = 135.1351%
  3. Check: Work backwards: 135.1351% of 185 is 1.351351 × 185 = 250.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 250/185 = p/100, so p = 250 × 100 ÷ 185 = 135.1351%. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =250/185*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.
