How to work it out

  1. Divide the part by the whole: 26 ÷ 23 = 1.130435
  2. Multiply by 100: 1.130435 × 100 = 113.0435%
  3. Check: Work backwards: 113.0435% of 23 is 1.130435 × 23 = 26.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 26/23 = p/100, so p = 26 × 100 ÷ 23 = 113.0435%. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =26/23*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 26 items against a target of 23 means reaching 113.0435% of the target, beating it by 13.0435%.
