Please Help my mind just not working today?

if you have the following how do you work out what pecentage the 4 are?
Total Sec 1 Sec 2 Sec 3 Sec 4
240,000 150,000 50,000 15,000 25.0000

I know there must be a simple formula for it but i just cant get it today.

Answers:
You mean 240,000 is the sum of 150,000 + 50,000 + 15,000 + 25,000. Yes?

Let's call your four numbers a, b, c, and d.

Let's call the total T.

The percent of T represented by a is (a/T) * 100
The percent of T represented by b is (b/T) * 100
The percent of T represented by c is (c/T) * 100
The percent of T represented by d is (d/T) * 100

For example,

(15,000/240,000) * 100 = (15/240) * 100 = (1/16) * 100
= 6.125%

Does that answer your question?
You've got 5 numbers there. Add them all together and divide by 5 - you will then have the average.
If you use a calculator it is easy to work out the answer.
Add the #s together, and then divide each one by the total: the part after "0." for each answer will be the %.
add them up, then figure out percentage you need
240,000-1sec
150,000-2sec
50,000-3sec
15,000-4sec
Your question is not at all clear, but to turn anything into a percentage you simply need to make it into hundredths. To do this first calculate it as a fraction, then convert it to a decimal and then multiply by 100.

For example 33 marks out of 60 in an exam converted to a percentage is:

33 divided by 60 multiply by 100

33/60 = 0.55

0.55 X 100 = 55

33/60 = 55%

OK now I see what you are doing.

150,000 divide by 240,000 multiply by 100 is the first - follow that pattern for the others - take the number and divide by the total then multiply by 100 - you have the percentage.
1. 15/24 times 100 =
2. 5 /24 times 100 =
3. 1.5/24 times 100 =
4. 2.5/24 times 100 =
Fraction Decimal Percent

150000/2400000.625 62.5
50000/2400000.20833333320.8333.
15000/2400000.0625 6.25
25000/2400000.10416666710.4166.
Total 1 100
