How to work it out

  1. Divide the part by the whole: 42 ÷ 22 = 1.909091
  2. Multiply by 100: 1.909091 × 100 = 190.9091%
  3. Check: Work backwards: 190.9091% of 22 is 1.909091 × 22 = 42.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 42/22 = p/100, so p = 42 × 100 ÷ 22 = 190.9091%. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =42/22*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 42 items against a target of 22 means reaching 190.9091% of the target, beating it by 90.9091%.
