That depends on what you mean by "calculate percentage". If you mean something like "What is 62% of 137", then you simply multiply 137 by 0.62 (and get the answer 84.94). You multiply the base number by the percentage you want to find.
However, I suspect your question is actually more along the lines of "What percentage is 62 from 137", in which case you would divide 62 by 137 (and get the answer of approximately 45%). You simply divide the percentage you want to find by the base number.
