How about...
mysql> select concat(50/1432, '%') as percentage;
+------------+
| percentage |
+------------+
| 0.03% |
+------------+
1 row in set (0.00 sec)
mysql> select concat(1324/4.14, '%') as percentage;
+------------+
| percentage |
+------------+
| 319.8068% |
+------------+
1 row in set (0.01 sec)
mysql> select concat(round(1324/4.14, 2), '%') as percentage;
+------------+
| percentage |
+------------+
| 319.81% |
+------------+
1 row in set (0.00 sec)
Keep in mind, that this value is now a string.....

Subject: Re: Percent?
couldn't you just do:
SELECT data1 * 100 FROM table;
which if data1 is 0.25, you'd get a result of 25, and depending on what
you're using for the frontend, it would be really easy to add on the
percentage sign....
