How to work it out

  1. Divide the part by the whole: 77 ÷ 20 = 3.85
  2. Multiply by 100: 3.85 × 100 = 385%
  3. Check: Work backwards: 385% of 20 is 3.85 × 20 = 77.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 77/20 = p/100, so p = 77 × 100 ÷ 20 = 385%. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =77/20*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

77 is more than the whole amount (3.85 times as much) of 20. 77 goes past 20 by 57, which is another 285% on top of the whole.

Targets: selling 77 items against a target of 20 means reaching 385% of the target, beating it by 285%.

Turning it around

If you know that 77 is 385% of a number, you can get that number back: 77 ÷ 3.85 = 20. And 20 as a percentage of 77 is 25.974%, a different answer, because the whole has changed.
