How to work it out

  1. Divide the part by the whole: 29 ÷ 27 = 1.074074
  2. Multiply by 100: 1.074074 × 100 = 107.4074%
  3. Check: Work backwards: 107.4074% of 27 is 1.074074 × 27 = 29.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 29/27 = p/100, so p = 29 × 100 ÷ 27 = 107.4074%. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =29/27*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

29 is more than the whole amount (1.074 times as much) of 27. 29 goes past 27 by 2, which is another 7.4074% on top of the whole.

Targets: selling 29 items against a target of 27 means reaching 107.4074% of the target, beating it by 7.4074%.

Turning it around

If you know that 29 is 107.4074% of a number, you can get that number back: 29 ÷ 1.074074 = 27. And 27 as a percentage of 29 is 93.1034%, a different answer, because the whole has changed.
