Three ways to work it out
All three give the same answer — pick whichever is easiest to do in your head for these numbers.
| Method | Working | Result |
|---|---|---|

| Divide by 100 first | (1000 ÷ 100) × 18 = 10 × 18 | 180 |
| Ten-percent chunks | 10% of 1000 = 100, then × 1.8 | 180 |

The reverse question
Going the other way — 180 is what percent of 1000? — divides instead of multiplying: (180 ÷ 1000) × 100 = 18%. That is the form to use when you know the part and the whole but not the rate, such as working out a score as a percentage or how much a price moved.
And to find the whole from the part: if 180 is 18% of some number, that number is 180 ÷ 0.18 = 1000.
