Percentage column

Hi
I need to create a percentage (%) column but all values should be divided with 100 before I can change Data Type (from a decimal number to percentage)

Anyone who can help me?

Decimal numbersShould be 98,58%

  Not so easy Anonymous
  As I already mentioned, if I do what you recommend I get totally wrong percentage.
  I have value 98,640 and if I just change to the percentage I get 9 8640,00% instead of 98,64%.
  Somehow I need to divide with 100 all raws in this column and after that, I can change to percentage. But I don't know-how.
