How to work it out

  1. Divide the part by the whole: 300 ÷ 115 = 2.608696
  2. Multiply by 100: 2.608696 × 100 = 260.8696%
  3. Check: Work backwards: 260.8696% of 115 is 2.608696 × 115 = 300.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 300/115 = p/100, so p = 300 × 100 ÷ 115 = 260.8696%. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =300/115*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.
