Aside from the answers that were already given, you’re probably looking for the term *percentages* rather than *percentiles*.
They’re very different things — percentiles are about ranking values on a cumulative scale of 100. For example, a student taking a math quiz can be said to have a 98th-percentile score when their score is higher than 98% of other scores they’re being compared with. The 50th percentile is also/better known as the median.
Hope this helps get you less confusing search results.
