How to work it out

  1. Divide the part by the whole: 300 ÷ 230 = 1.304348
  2. Multiply by 100: 1.304348 × 100 = 130.4348%
  3. Check: Work backwards: 130.4348% of 230 is 1.304348 × 230 = 300.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 300/230 = p/100, so p = 300 × 100 ÷ 230 = 130.4348%. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =300/230*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

Targets: selling 300 items against a target of 230 means reaching 130.4348% of the target, beating it by 30.4348%.
