How do I calculate the percentage I've completed?

I have 21,000 forms. I have completed all but 1,400. What percentage have I completed/have left to do?How do I calculate the percentage I've completed?
Divide 1400 by 21,000 and that will tell you the percentage that you have completed. I would say about 7% as a rough estimate.
left to do is 1400/21000*100% = 6.67%

completed = 100%-6.67% = 93.34%How do I calculate the percentage I've completed?
divide 1,400/21,000=0.066*100=6.6% done and 93.4% left
Hmm. Both numbers are multiples of 700, so if I divide 21000 by 1400, I'll get an integer.



21000/1400 = 15



If you have 1/15 left to do, you have done 14/15 of the job.



14/15 = .9333 = 93.33%How do I calculate the percentage I've completed?
set up ratio



1400 is to 21000 as x is to 100



1400/21000 = x/100



therefore 1400(100)/21000 = x



you have 6.66% left....so 100-6.66 = 93.34% you already did
21,000 - 1,400 = 19,600 then 19,600/21,000 = 196/210 = 14/15 = 93.33333% or 93.3%
