You cannot.

A pound is a measure of mass or currency. A percentage is a pure ratio, with no measurement units.. The two measure different things and, according to basic principles of dimensional analysis, conversion from one to the other is not valid.

For example 15% of 200 is 30: which has no dimensions.
