Yes. percentage is a unit for a ratio.
100% ( 100 percent ) equals the normalized form of a ratio of 1/1 (one to one) which is 1.0.
50% ( 50 percent ) equals the normalized form of a ratio of 1/2 (one to two) which is 0.5.
Scaling a value by a normalized ratio can be archived by simple multiplication.
22 * 0.5
Scaling a value by a percentage value can be archived by normalizing the percentage value first by divion by 100:
percentage value / 100 = normalized value
50 / 100 = 0.5
other units for a ratio are:
Per mille (‰) 1 part in 1,000
Basis point (‱) 1 part in 10,000
Per cent mille (pcm) 1 part in 100,000

How do you convert percentages into money?
A percentage is a pure number while money has a measurement unit (dollar, pound, rupee, yen etc) associated with it. The two measure different things and, according to the basic rules of dimensional analysis, conversion from one to the other is not valid. For example, a percentage might refer to the proportion of boys that are left-handed. I am not sure if that percentage can be converted to money in any meaningful way!
