How to work it out

  1. Divide the part by the whole: 64 ÷ 40 = 1.6
  2. Multiply by 100: 1.6 × 100 = 160%
  3. Check: Work backwards: 160% of 40 is 1.6 × 40 = 64.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 64/40 = p/100, so p = 64 × 100 ÷ 40 = 160%. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =64/40*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

64 is more than the whole amount (1.6 times as much) of 40. 64 goes past 40 by 24, which is another 60% on top of the whole.

Targets: selling 64 items against a target of 40 means reaching 160% of the target, beating it by 60%.

Turning it around

If you know that 64 is 160% of a number, you can get that number back: 64 ÷ 1.6 = 40. And 40 as a percentage of 64 is 62.5%, a different answer, because the whole has changed.
