How to work it out

  1. Divide the part by the whole: 500 ÷ 95 = 5.263158
  2. Multiply by 100: 5.263158 × 100 = 526.3158%
  3. Check: Work backwards: 526.3158% of 95 is 5.263158 × 95 = 500.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 500/95 = p/100, so p = 500 × 100 ÷ 95 = 526.3158%. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =500/95*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.

Targets: selling 500 items against a target of 95 means reaching 526.3158% of the target, beating it by 426.3158%.
