[Solved]How do I - Math - How do I do Percentages?

Hello community, I am bad at math!

I remember from when I was in school, it was something something 100 over a number? Haha, that's irrelevant right now...

Basically, uh. How do I type into string percentages?

How do I get the system to evaluate a number and give me the closest percent to that, and then of course "round" up or down?

I'm reading https://www.scirra.com/manual/126/system-expressions and also viewtopic.php?t=72716&start=0 as I wait for one of you lovely people to save me from my ineptitude of all things math.

Final question, what is the difference between the "Beginner's Questions" and "How do I" forum?

round( value * 100 / max)

max is the highest the value can reach. value is the number to test.

blackhornet Thank you so much my friend!

After fiddling with it for about 15 minutes, throwing in values randomly left and right, I seemed to have figured it out. or better yet, I know which numbers to put in to get my percents, I don't particularly know why it worked out as such though.
