Hi reader ,
look percentile and percentage are both completely different things.
percentage stands for the total marks you scored out of the total marks for which the exam was conducted.
since you got 40% it means that you scored 40 marks in an exam which was held for 100 marks.
percentile refers to the percentage of people who are behind you or scored less than you in the conducted exam.
for example if 100 candidates appeared for an exam and 90 scored marks less than you then your percentile will be 90 as 90 candidates are behind you.
so by mentioning percentage we cannot predict the percentile until we know the number of candidates who appeared and the rank you secured.
i hope this helps
thank you
