That is, unless you want to avoid decimals if the division by 100 would leave a non integer, in which case, you need to use the math function “round”, and if you want to add a “%” symbol, in which case you’d need to use the text “join” function.

Why doesn’t it make sense? 15% of 9 is 1.35. What were you expecting 15% of 9 to equal?
