How to work it out

  1. Divide the part by the whole: 73 ÷ 30 = 2.433333
  2. Multiply by 100: 2.433333 × 100 = 243.3333%
  3. Check: Work backwards: 243.3333% of 30 is 2.433333 × 30 = 73.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 73/30 = p/100, so p = 73 × 100 ÷ 30 = 243.3333%. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =73/30*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

73 is more than the whole amount (2.433 times as much) of 30. 73 goes past 30 by 43, which is another 143.3333% on top of the whole.

Targets: selling 73 items against a target of 30 means reaching 243.3333% of the target, beating it by 143.3333%.

Turning it around

If you know that 73 is 243.3333% of a number, you can get that number back: 73 ÷ 2.433333 = 30. And 30 as a percentage of 73 is 41.0959%, a different answer, because the whole has changed.
