Inches are a measurement of distance and are part of a group known as scaler quantities (i.e. those that have magnitude only). However percentages are a form of ratio expressed as a fraction of 100.

In order to convert inches into a percentage, you need a minimum of two values or measurements to compare to each other (to form the ratio).

For example if one man (Dave) is 72 inches tall and another man (John) is 78 inches tall then what percentage of John's height is Dave?

To find the answer we divide Dave's height by John's and then multiply by 100.

(72/78) x 100 = 92.3 %

So Dave's height is 92.3 % of John's height.
