Default getting a percentage

I want to convert a test score to a percentage, however the fraction may
change

e.g. column E displays scores which are out of 14. How do I have that
displayed in column F as a percentage?

Go to, for example, F1, and enter =E1/14

Then format it as a percentage (click on the % sign on the toolbar, if it's
there, if not right click and select format cells then percentage).

Mike

In F1 enter =E1/14 and format as percentage.

If the 14 will change over time, you could enter that number in a cell(say A1)
and refer to the cell.

=E1/A1
