| Method | Working | Result |

The reverse question
Going the other way — 100 is what percent of 400? — divides instead of multiplying: (100 ÷ 400) × 100 = 25%. 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 100 is 25% of some number, that number is 100 ÷ 0.25 = 400.
