How to work it out

  1. Divide the part by the whole: 250 ÷ 90 = 2.777778
  2. Multiply by 100: 2.777778 × 100 = 277.7778%
  3. Check: Work backwards: 277.7778% of 90 is 2.777778 × 90 = 250.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 250/90 = p/100, so p = 250 × 100 ÷ 90 = 277.7778%. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =250/90*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 250 items against a target of 90 means reaching 277.7778% of the target, beating it by 177.7778%.
