How to change Page Layout of existing page in SharePoint?

Recently a task was assigned to me to make sure that dev site should look like production one. First thing i noticed when i comparing two sites is both pages using different page layouts. so the question is how do you change the page layout which associated with your current page?

It is really simple once you know where to look.

  1. Go to the Page which you want to change. In my case i need to change my home page. so i browse http://mysite/home.aspx
  2. Click Site Actions and then select Edit Page option.
  3. On the toolbar, Click on Page and then select Page Settings
