How do you convert percentile 8.6 to percentage?

You would need to know how many questions were on the original test and what number of questions correct would be in the 8.6 percentile. Most tests do not give this data. If you can find it out, then number right / total number on test x 100 gives the percentage. 50 percentile might mean a 70% if it was an average test, or for a hard test 10 percentile might mean a 30%. Without the above information you cannot directly convert one to the other.
