sorry can you show me an example actually in a query?

You know, sometimes there is only one way to process a string, yet someone asks for an example, so for the sake of it - enter some code that's no simpler to understand than the string above.

 

<?php

$total = 200;
$whole = 100;
$percent = 10;

$value = ($total / $whole) * $percent;
