How to work it out

  1. Divide the part by the whole: 81 ÷ 54 = 1.5
  2. Multiply by 100: 1.5 × 100 = 150%
  3. Check: Work backwards: 150% of 54 is 1.5 × 54 = 81.

In a spreadsheet: =81/54*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.

Targets: selling 81 items against a target of 54 means reaching 150% of the target, beating it by 50%.
