How to work it out

  1. Divide the part by the whole: 68 ÷ 25 = 2.72
  2. Multiply by 100: 2.72 × 100 = 272%
  3. Check: Work backwards: 272% of 25 is 2.72 × 25 = 68.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 68/25 = p/100, so p = 68 × 100 ÷ 25 = 272%. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =68/25*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

68 is more than the whole amount (2.72 times as much) of 25. 68 goes past 25 by 43, which is another 172% on top of the whole.

Targets: selling 68 items against a target of 25 means reaching 272% of the target, beating it by 172%.

Turning it around

If you know that 68 is 272% of a number, you can get that number back: 68 ÷ 2.72 = 25. And 25 as a percentage of 68 is 36.7647%, a different answer, because the whole has changed.
