Dear speed. A percentage is one number divided by another and multiplied by
100. There is a % symbol that you can use on the standard tool bar. You
didn't happen to go to public school in California did you?

I would like to know how to compute percentages on a spreadsheet.

First, we need to know if you know how to compute percentages on paper, or
with a calculator. Do you?

Speed,
You would type in a formula which starts with = and follow that by the
operators you want to use. Like, for 20 is 20% of 100, you would type =20/100
and then format the cell as a percent. OK?
