How to subtract percentages?
I created a new column % Not complete and am trying to add a formula to have =100%-[%Complete]@row. Answer #UNPARSEABLE
I have also tried =100-%Complete]@row. Answer: This will populate an answer, however I cannot adjust the formatting from % to number
Example:
%Complete = 13%
Correct answer should display 87%
Second option displays 9,987%
I adjusted the value from 100 to 1 and it works! Hopefully this helps others too :)

If the two percent columns are formatted as percent columns (see screenshot), then the % Not Complete column would have this formula:
=1 - [%Complete]@row
Hope this helps!
