How to work it out

  1. Divide the part by the whole: 43 ÷ 20 = 2.15
  2. Multiply by 100: 2.15 × 100 = 215%
  3. Check: Work backwards: 215% of 20 is 2.15 × 20 = 43.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 43/20 = p/100, so p = 43 × 100 ÷ 20 = 215%. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =43/20*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

43 is more than the whole amount (2.15 times as much) of 20. 43 goes past 20 by 23, which is another 115% on top of the whole.

Targets: selling 43 items against a target of 20 means reaching 215% of the target, beating it by 115%.

Turning it around

If you know that 43 is 215% of a number, you can get that number back: 43 ÷ 2.15 = 20. And 20 as a percentage of 43 is 46.5116%, a different answer, because the whole has changed.
