Calculating Percentages

[Guest]

I am doing a simple percentage calculation, however the two percentages are
not adding up to 100%, is there a reason for this? Thanks for any help with
this matter.

Could you provide an example?

What are your input values?

We'd need to have the exact numbers you're working with.

The values are:

119/128 and 8/128

The formulas are F21/B21 and D21/B21

The return values are 93% and 6%

Thanks

119 + 8 does not equal 128. Hence they do not add up to 100%.
