How to work it out

  1. Divide the part by the whole: 37 ÷ 27 = 1.37037
  2. Multiply by 100: 1.37037 × 100 = 137.037%
  3. Check: Work backwards: 137.037% of 27 is 1.37037 × 27 = 37.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 37/27 = p/100, so p = 37 × 100 ÷ 27 = 137.037%. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =37/27*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

37 is more than the whole amount (1.37 times as much) of 27. 37 goes past 27 by 10, which is another 37.037% on top of the whole.

Targets: selling 37 items against a target of 27 means reaching 137.037% of the target, beating it by 37.037%.
