It depends what you want to do, if you want a percentage of something, just divide it by 100 and multiply it by the wanted percentage

You take the number it's at, (let's say 60,) and divide it by the maximum number it can be (let's say 120), then you multiply that by one hundred. (60/120=0.5 0.5*100=50 50%)
