How to work it out
- Divide the part by the whole: 30 ÷ 2 = 15

- Check: Work backwards: 1,500% of 2 is 15 × 2 = 30.
In a spreadsheet: =30/2*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.

Turning it around
If you know that 30 is 1,500% of a number, you can get that number back: 30 ÷ 15 = 2. And 2 as a percentage of 30 is 6.6667%, a different answer, because the whole has changed.
