percent

Amount per hundred. A concept which many people are somewhat naive about. Often abbreviated as "%" (the percent sign).

%

Percent; amount per hundred. A concept which many people are somewhat naive about.

Also used in many computer codes for variables, or for encoding special characters in web addresses.

1% = 1/100 = 0.01 ; 100% = 1

Why do some coaches ask you to give it 110%, when 100% is (by definition) the most you can give?

The code for a % sign in a web address is %25.
