How to work it out

  1. Divide the part by the whole: 500 ÷ 145 = 3.448276
  2. Multiply by 100: 3.448276 × 100 = 344.8276%
  3. Check: Work backwards: 344.8276% of 145 is 3.448276 × 145 = 500.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 500/145 = p/100, so p = 500 × 100 ÷ 145 = 344.8276%. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =500/145*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.
