How to work it out

  1. Divide the part by the whole: 46 ÷ 5 = 9.2
  2. Multiply by 100: 9.2 × 100 = 920%
  3. Check: Work backwards: 920% of 5 is 9.2 × 5 = 46.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 46/5 = p/100, so p = 46 × 100 ÷ 5 = 920%. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =46/5*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

46 is more than the whole amount (9.2 times as much) of 5. 46 goes past 5 by 41, which is another 820% on top of the whole.

Targets: selling 46 items against a target of 5 means reaching 920% of the target, beating it by 820%.

Turning it around

If you know that 46 is 920% of a number, you can get that number back: 46 ÷ 9.2 = 5. And 5 as a percentage of 46 is 10.8696%, a different answer, because the whole has changed.
