At the decision economic and statistically tasks quite often it is necessary to transfer percent to shares. Percent are shares, but the fixed (100-th) shares. In most cases such translation does not cause difficulties – it is necessary to watch closely correctness of calculations only.

1. To transfer percent to shares, it is necessary to specify first of all: to what shares it is required to transfer them. In thousand, the tenth, fifth, third, etc. Let's say percent it is necessary to transfer to share n-nye. For this purpose use the following formula: Cd = To % x n/100, where: Cd – quantity of shares, To % - the number of percent, n - "size" of shares (for the third – n=3, for the tenth – n=10, etc.).
2. For example, let it is known that concentration of solution makes 2%. It is required to define: what will be concentration of this solution in thousand shares (per mille). Having used the above-stated formula it is received 2 x 1000/100 = 20. That is, the concentration of 2% of solution expressed in thousand shares will equal 20.
3. However, in practice to specify to what shares it is necessary to transfer percent often can be difficult. In this case pick up the shares which are the most suitable in this situation. At the same time it is necessary to consider also the number of percent in each case. It is better to consider such situations on typical examples.
4. Let, for example, the shareholder own 20% of stocks of the enterprise. It is required to find out – what share of the enterprise he owns. As 20% are 20/100, having reduced such fraction, we receive 1/5. That is, in this case, proceeding from heart of the matter and the number of percent, the answer will be: "Fifth share".
5. If the shareholder redeemed 51% of shares of the enterprise, then it will not be possible to reduce the number of percent any more. Therefore (theoretically) the most correct answer to the above-question posed will be "The fifty one 100-th share". However, in this situation such answer is not absolutely appropriate. More informative will be to spread out 51/100 to the sum: 50/100 + 1/100 = 1/2 + 1/100. Thus, the correct answer will be: "Half and one cell".
6. If it is impossible to receive acceptable shares, and the accuracy of calculations is noncritical, then change the number of percent a little. Let, for example, it is known that 77% of staff of the enterprise – family. It is asked: what makes a share from total number of employees family workers. As 77/100 it is impossible to reduce, we will pick up more suitable numerator. It is 75. 75/100=3/4. Thus, the correct (in this case) answer will be such: "More than three fourth" or "Three from four".
