Maths Range To Percentage

Question

i need a bit of help with some maths.

I have a range 0 - 127 and i want to convert it into percentage.

So 0% = 0 and 100% = 127 and every number inbetween.

How would i do this?

Edit:

Thanks to what jon posted, i came up with:

$percent * 127 / 100

Answer 1

If you want to go from a value to a percentage, eg from 63.5 to 50%, divide your value by 127 & multiply by 100.

If you want to go the other way, eg from 50% to 63.5, it's the reverse: divide your percentage by 100 & multiply by 127.
