There are 100bps in 1 percentage point. So its 100bps in 1 percent and 100 percent in one whole unit. Bps are used in situations where v small changes are being made - i.e. particularly in interest rates. So when the FED says its changing interest rates by 25bps it means 0.25% or like a change from 3% to 3.25%.
