Into what kind of percentage do you want to convert it? A percentile already is some kind of percentage. It says that so-and-so many percent score above (or below) your score (or whatever score you are considering). The actual score (percentage or otherwise) can't be deduced from the percentile, unless you look it up in a table of scores. For example, if you are in the top 20 percentile in an exam, and there are 1000 students, get a list of the scores - sorted from high to low - and count the first 20% of scores - in this example, the scores for the best 200 students. The student at position #200 will be the answer.

How can we convert 75 percentile into percent?

You cannot. The 75th percentile is the value of a variable such that 75% of the observations are below that value and 25% are higher. The 75th percentile in the heights of adult women will be a measure of height whereas the 75th percentile in the income distribution in a country will be the level of income [in some currency unit] such that 75% of incomes in the country are lower. These examples illustrate that the 75th percentile can be a measurement in any unit and converting to a percentage makes no sense.


How do you convert a percentage to a percentile?

You can't convert that directly. To convert percentages - or any kind of numbers, for that matter - to percentile, you need to use the definition of percentile. For example, if you have a grade of 90%, you check how many other grades have less than 90%, and divide that by the total number of grades. Note that for example with a grade of 90%, your percentile can be anywhere between 0 and 100 - depending what grades OTHERS had.

How do you convert percentile 8.6 to percentage?

You would need to know how many questions were on the original test and what number of questions correct would be in the 8.6 percentile. Most tests do not give this data. If you can find it out, then number right / total number on test x 100 gives the percentage. 50 percentile might mean a 70% if it was an average test, or for a hard test 10 percentile might mean a 30%. Without the above information you cannot directly convert one to the other.
