How to work it out

  1. Divide the part by the whole: 75 ÷ 300 = 0.25
  2. Multiply by 100: 0.25 × 100 = 25%
  3. Check: Work backwards: 25% of 300 is 0.25 × 300 = 75.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 75/300 = p/100, so p = 75 × 100 ÷ 300 = 25%. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =75/300*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

75 is between a quarter and a half of 300. The part that is left, 225, is the other 75%.

Test scores: 75 correct answers out of 300 is a score of 25%, which on a common US grading scale is an F.

Turning it around

If you know that 75 is 25% of a number, you can get that number back: 75 ÷ 0.25 = 300. And 300 as a percentage of 75 is 400%, a different answer, because the whole has changed.
