How to work it out

  1. Divide the part by the whole: 400 ÷ 25 = 16
  2. Multiply by 100: 16 × 100 = 1,600%
  3. Check: Work backwards: 1,600% of 25 is 16 × 25 = 400.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 400/25 = p/100, so p = 400 × 100 ÷ 25 = 1,600%. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =400/25*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

400 is more than the whole amount (16 times as much) of 25. 400 goes past 25 by 375, which is another 1,500% on top of the whole.

Targets: selling 400 items against a target of 25 means reaching 1,600% of the target, beating it by 1,500%.

Turning it around

If you know that 400 is 1,600% of a number, you can get that number back: 400 ÷ 16 = 25. And 25 as a percentage of 400 is 6.25%, a different answer, because the whole has changed.
