How to work it out

  1. Divide the part by the whole: 300 ÷ 55 = 5.454545
  2. Multiply by 100: 5.454545 × 100 = 545.4545%
  3. Check: Work backwards: 545.4545% of 55 is 5.454545 × 55 = 300.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 300/55 = p/100, so p = 300 × 100 ÷ 55 = 545.4545%. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =300/55*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 55 means reaching 545.4545% of the target, beating it by 445.4545%.
