How to work it out

  1. Divide the part by the whole: 71 ÷ 15 = 4.733333
  2. Multiply by 100: 4.733333 × 100 = 473.3333%
  3. Check: Work backwards: 473.3333% of 15 is 4.733333 × 15 = 71.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 71/15 = p/100, so p = 71 × 100 ÷ 15 = 473.3333%. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =71/15*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

71 is more than the whole amount (4.733 times as much) of 15. 71 goes past 15 by 56, which is another 373.3333% on top of the whole.

Targets: selling 71 items against a target of 15 means reaching 473.3333% of the target, beating it by 373.3333%.

Turning it around
