if you wanted to find your percentage in a test for example and you scored 36 out of 42 then you would type into your calculator 36 divided by 42 this equals .8571428. then, you multiply this number by 100 which would equal 85.71. this is your percentage 85.71%.

if it is a fraction, like 4 over 7 then you type into your calculator 4 divided by 7 which equals .5714285. multiply by 100 gives you a percentage of 57%

if it is a decimal, like .1442 then you multiply it by 100 and that gives you the percentage. in this case it would be 14%
