Default a formula combining 2 cells into a %

I'm confused now.

5% of 2.25 is =A1*.05 which returns .1125

Is this what you want?

Thanks for the response Gord, my problem is 2.25 in cell 1 5% in cell 2 which
should equal cell 3 as a percentage. I'm looking for 5% of 2.25.

A1 is 56

A2 is 200

In A3 enter =A1/A2 which returns 28% when formatted as Percentage.
