Hi Doaa, 

thanks for reaching out! In this case, if you choose to format the number as a percentage, tableau does an additional calculation and you obtain the wrong results. When you're formatting the number, I've opted for a custom number and added the % as a suffix, like so:

Let me know if this works for you and if you have any further questions!

Best,
