How to work it out

  1. Divide the part by the whole: 300 ÷ 180 = 1.666667
  2. Multiply by 100: 1.666667 × 100 = 166.6667%
  3. Check: Work backwards: 166.6667% of 180 is 1.666667 × 180 = 300.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 300/180 = p/100, so p = 300 × 100 ÷ 180 = 166.6667%. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =300/180*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

300 is more than the whole amount (1.667 times as much) of 180. 300 goes past 180 by 120, which is another 66.6667% on top of the whole.

Targets: selling 300 items against a target of 180 means reaching 166.6667% of the target, beating it by 66.6667%.

Turning it around

If you know that 300 is 166.6667% of a number, you can get that number back: 300 ÷ 1.666667 = 180. And 180 as a percentage of 300 is 60%, a different answer, because the whole has changed.
