How to work it out

  1. Turn the percentage into a decimal: 20 ÷ 100 = 0.2
  2. Divide the part by it: 95 ÷ 0.2 = 475
  3. Check: Work forwards: 20% of 475 is 0.2 × 475 = 95.

Another method. As a proportion: 95/whole = 20/100, so whole = 95 × 100 ÷ 20 = 475. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =95/20%. Multiplying the part by the percentage instead of dividing gives a smaller number. The whole must be bigger than the part whenever the percentage is below 100.

What the result means

95 is the 20% share of 475. The other 80% is 380.

Discounts: if 95 dollars is a 20% saving, the original price was $475.

Using 1% as a stepping stone

If 20% is 95, then 1% is 95 ÷ 20 = 4.75, and any other percentage follows: 10% is 47.5, 50% is 237.5 and 100% is 475.
