need to know the other number it is a percentage of

example 3 by itself means nothing
however 3 as a percentage of 5 then multiply the fraction by 100
to get percentage, so 3/5 x 100 = 300/5 = 60/1 = 60
so 3 as a percentage of 5 is 60%
as one example

whereas 3 as a percentage of 100 is 3%
all depends on what the other number is
3 was just an example of an ordinary number.
