You have to type \% (backslash percent) to get a percent sign. See also Escape character in LaTeX.
You can also use the \SI{70}{\percent} command from the siunitx package. Just put a backslash before % such as to write 70% we have to use 70\% .
We have already used the curly braces { and }. The percent symbol % is a comment character. Everything from the percent symbol up to the end of line is ignored by LaTeX. This means you can have comments in your source code to remind you what a particular part of your code is doing.
It's simply \% . You can use it in or out of math mode.
On a US Keyboard layout, the percent sign is located on the numeral 5 key above the R and T. To insert % hold down the Shift key and press the 5 key. If you have a different Keyboard layout, it may be in some other place, but you can also insert it by holding down the Alt key and typing 037 on the numeric keypad.
In today's post, I answer one such question: Question: How do you decide whether to use the percentage symbol (%) or the word percentage? Answer: Use the symbol only when it is preceded by a numeral; otherwise, spell out the word percentage.
Percentages. One of the most frequent ways to represent statistics is by percentage. Percent simply means "per hundred" and the symbol used to express percentage is %. One percent (or 1%) is one hundredth of the total or whole and is therefore calculated by dividing the total or whole number by 100.
You have to type \% (backslash percent) to get a percent sign.
To open the Symbol Palette, click the Ω button at the top of the editor. It's available in Source and Rich Text mode. The Symbol Palette will open at the bottom of the editor window. You can resize it by clicking and dragging the handle up and down.
A LaTeX command begins with the command name, which consists of a \ followed by either (a) a string of letters or (b) a single non-letter. Arguments contained in square brackets [] are optional while arguments contained in braces {} are required.
\dot{1}\dot{7} .
Sometimes a degree symbol is required in a latex document to write temperature and angle. You need to use the ^\circ command for this symbol.

LaTeX symbols
( \eqsim ), usually to indicate that two quantities are equal up to constants. ( \gtrapprox ), usually to indicate that either the inequality holds or the two values are approximately equal.
To insert an equation using the keyboard, press ALT+ =, and then type the equation. You can insert equation symbols outside a math region by using Math AutoCorrect.
LaTeX uses the TeX typesetting program for formatting its output, and is itself written in the TeX macro language. LaTeX can be used as a standalone document preparation system, or as an intermediate format.
To determine the percentage, we have to divide the value by the total value and then multiply the resultant by 100.
In Mathematics, The Percentage Sign %, Called Modulo (Or Sometimes The Remainder Operator) Is A Operator Which Will Find The Remainder Of Two Numbers x And y. Mathematically Speaking, If x/y = {(z, r) : y * z + r = x}, Where All x, y, and z Are All Integers, Then x % y = {r: ∃z: x/y = (z, r)}.
One percent (symbolized 1%) is a hundredth part; thus, 100 percent represents the entirety and 200 percent specifies twice the given quantity. For example, 1 percent of 1,000 chickens equals 1/100 of 1,000, or 10 chickens; 20 percent of the quantity is 20/100 1,000, or 200.
