How to work it out

  1. Divide the part by the whole: 250 ÷ 25 = 10
  2. Multiply by 100: 10 × 100 = 1,000%
  3. Check: Work backwards: 1,000% of 25 is 10 × 25 = 250.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 250/25 = p/100, so p = 250 × 100 ÷ 25 = 1,000%. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =250/25*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

250 is more than the whole amount (10 times as much) of 25. 250 goes past 25 by 225, which is another 900% on top of the whole.

Targets: selling 250 items against a target of 25 means reaching 1,000% of the target, beating it by 900%.

Turning it around

If you know that 250 is 1,000% of a number, you can get that number back: 250 ÷ 10 = 25. And 25 as a percentage of 250 is 10%, a different answer, because the whole has changed.
