Need formula

[JeffG1231]

I?m trying to find the correct formula to determine what percentage each - of 4 different square footages represents (with all four adding up to 100%).

Example

3168 Sq Ft ________________(% ?)
1980 Sq Ft ________________ (% ?)
1584 Sq Ft ________________ (% ?)
3168 Sq Ft ________________ (% ?)
___________
100%

HELP ANYONE?
PLEASE

Please try =a1/sum(a$1:a$4) and copy down (format cells as %)

GETTING CIRCULAR MESSAGE WHEN TRYING (Please try =a1/sum(a$1:a$4) and copy down (format cells as %) )...

A SPECIFIC EXAMPLE IS:

9900 = 100% AND ONE NUMBER IS 3168. WHAT PERCENTAGE OF 9900 IS 3168? SHOULD BE SIMPLE BUT I CAN'T GET IT

[HansDouwe]

You should try the formula somewhere else and refer to the numbers of the square foots

For your last example try =3168/9900 and format result as a percentage.

Try this. This formula is considering that your data is in A1:A4. =A1/SUM($A$1:$A$4)
