How to work it out

  1. Divide the part by the whole: 96 ÷ 60 = 1.6
  2. Multiply by 100: 1.6 × 100 = 160%
  3. Check: Work backwards: 160% of 60 is 1.6 × 60 = 96.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 96/60 = p/100, so p = 96 × 100 ÷ 60 = 160%. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =96/60*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

96 is more than the whole amount (1.6 times as much) of 60. 96 goes past 60 by 36, which is another 60% on top of the whole.

Targets: selling 96 items against a target of 60 means reaching 160% of the target, beating it by 60%.

Turning it around

If you know that 96 is 160% of a number, you can get that number back: 96 ÷ 1.6 = 60. And 60 as a percentage of 96 is 62.5%, a different answer, because the whole has changed.
