How to work it out

  1. Divide the part by the whole: 30 ÷ 200 = 0.15
  2. Multiply by 100: 0.15 × 100 = 15%
  3. Check: Work backwards: 15% of 200 is 0.15 × 200 = 30.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 30/200 = p/100, so p = 30 × 100 ÷ 200 = 15%. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =30/200*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

30 is between a tenth and a quarter of 200. The part that is left, 170, is the other 85%.

Test scores: 30 correct answers out of 200 is a score of 15%, which on a common US grading scale is an F.

Turning it around

If you know that 30 is 15% of a number, you can get that number back: 30 ÷ 0.15 = 200. And 200 as a percentage of 30 is 666.6667%, a different answer, because the whole has changed.
