How to work it out

  1. Divide the part by the whole: 90 ÷ 12 = 7.5
  2. Multiply by 100: 7.5 × 100 = 750%
  3. Check: Work backwards: 750% of 12 is 7.5 × 12 = 90.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 90/12 = p/100, so p = 90 × 100 ÷ 12 = 750%. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =90/12*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

90 is more than the whole amount (7.5 times as much) of 12. 90 goes past 12 by 78, which is another 650% on top of the whole.

Targets: selling 90 items against a target of 12 means reaching 750% of the target, beating it by 650%.

Turning it around

If you know that 90 is 750% of a number, you can get that number back: 90 ÷ 7.5 = 12. And 12 as a percentage of 90 is 13.3333%, a different answer, because the whole has changed.
