You'll never miss some. It just that your content may not look that good at some widths. The content will dictate your breakpoints. Don't pick breakpoints based on devices. You'll never do it.

Otherwise I'll need eight MQ that doesn't guarantee I won't miss some, but I'll get the majority !

Target / Context = Result

So if your max page width is 960 and your container is 650 then:

650/960=.677 (x100) so 67.7%

Sorry, if you have a 650px (example) width <div>/container, what is the math to calculate the width in percentages ?

More like:

div{width:75%;} /*example width only*/
div img {
max-width:100%;
}

But use this carefully. Don't serve a huge image to phones. Or allow a tiny img to scale up too large as it will look bad.
