Percentage of Debt

Hi all,

can anyone help me with how you work out what percentage of debt you've paid off. I've tried various methods i've found online but maths was never my strong point and i can't seem to grasp how to do it!

thank you in advance :)

    if you had £100 on a credit card and paid of £20 pounds then that would be (20/100)*100 = 20%

    if you have £35 paid off from £500 credit card debt

    (35/500)*100= 7% paid off.
