The motorcycling sense of 1%, comes from a supposed 1948 statement by the American Motorcycle Association that ninety-nine percent of motorcyclists are good people enjoying a clean sport, and it is only one percent who are antisocial barbarians.
This was following the infamous Holister Riots, where 4000 bikers turned up for a party, everyone had a great time but it was 'spoiled' by 1% of the party goers.
This was then siezed by the OMC (Outlaw Motorcycle Clubs), who proudly started to wear the 1% patch with pride, and continue to do so to this day.

1 is less than 5 or did you mean .05 percent or even .5 percent? then yes 1 is greater than those.
Assuming you mean as a percentage of 1, 0.04 is equal to 4 percent.
Percentages as such mean hundredths. So 1% would be 0.01
1 percent = 0.01 the value of 100 percent (100%) = 1 So if your question is 50 * (100%), this is 50 * 1 = 50. if you took it as (50 x 100) percent, then you get the same thing: (50 x 100) percent = (5000) percent. 5000 % = 5000 * 0.01 = 50 If you mean (50 %) * (100 %), then 0.50 * 1 = 0.50
