How to work it out

  1. Divide the part by the whole: 500 ÷ 395 = 1.265823
  2. Multiply by 100: 1.265823 × 100 = 126.5823%
  3. Check: Work backwards: 126.5823% of 395 is 1.265823 × 395 = 500.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 500/395 = p/100, so p = 500 × 100 ÷ 395 = 126.5823%. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =500/395*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.
