  • 100% is the total, and 360 °: is the total (in a circle) so make a proportion. Say it's 35%

    35/100 = d/360 then cross multiply

    100d = 360(35) = 12600

    divide by 100 and get d = 126 °

  • Change To A Percent

  • Make it a decimal then multiply it by 360. For example, if your percent is 25%, move the decimal two left: .25, then multiply by 360, which is 90. The degree is 90 degrees.

  • Take the percentage and make it into a decimal.

    Then multiply that by 360

    Resulting number is degrees of a circle.

    :)

  • Simply divide your percentage by 100.

    For example:

    50%

    50 / 100 = 0.5
