Answer:

It can mean many things, but mostly taking a chunck of something whether it's money or food. Many things have percent too them.

Step-by-step explanation:

Example: you are working for me i pay you 50% of my income which is 1000 % you we would split it half because 50% means half so you would get 500, i would get 500.
