Calculation in script and number format

I have two questions.

1) I have a field that comes in as 199.00 instead of 1.99 so I put it as an expression in a chart and divided it by 100 to see it as 1.99 but I want to see this as a percent so when I set it as a "Fixed to 2 decimals" and "Show it as a percent" , it shows me 199.00%. Any way to fix this in the expression calculation or script? I want to be able to see 1.99%

1) Is there an easy way to do a sum calculation in the script?  I have a field that is extracted in seconds but I need it in hours. So I want to be able to calculate this in the script for performance reasons. The below seems to be unacceptable. How can I do this in the script without making it overly complicated?

Load

     Speed,

     Speed/2600 as [Speedhours],                                    // doesn't seem to get the right answer

     SUM(Speed/3600) as [Speed in hours],                    //  doesn't work, errors

     Otherfields,

     Otherfields1,

Hi,

LOAD

  Num(field1/100, '0.00%') as field1,

  Speed,

  Speed/3600 as [Speed in hours]

Inline [

1 - Try dividing it by 10,000 instead

2 - In order to do sum's (aggregations), you need to group by all the fields that are not part of the sum.

So add:

Group By

  Speed,

  Otherfields,

  Otherfields1

That way you can sum at the correct level.
