How to work it out

  1. Divide the part by the whole: 33 ÷ 15 = 2.2
  2. Multiply by 100: 2.2 × 100 = 220%
  3. Check: Work backwards: 220% of 15 is 2.2 × 15 = 33.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 33/15 = p/100, so p = 33 × 100 ÷ 15 = 220%. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =33/15*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

33 is more than the whole amount (2.2 times as much) of 15. 33 goes past 15 by 18, which is another 120% on top of the whole.

Targets: selling 33 items against a target of 15 means reaching 220% of the target, beating it by 120%.

Turning it around

If you know that 33 is 220% of a number, you can get that number back: 33 ÷ 2.2 = 15. And 15 as a percentage of 33 is 45.4545%, a different answer, because the whole has changed.
