    Central angle help

    Does anyone know of an easy formula for finding the degree of central angle? I know the percents, I just don't know how to make them the correct degree measure.

    Complete circle covers the 360^\circ, which we can call our 100\%, so, if you want to find for example, the 36\% of it, can you do it?
