*Or, you could just as easily compute inline in SQL:

SELECT datname,
       pg_size_pretty(pg_database_size(datname))as size_pretty,
       pg_database_size(datname) as size,
       (SELECT pg_size_pretty (SUM( pg_database_size(datname))::bigint)
          FROM pg_database)  AS total,
      ((pg_database_size(datname) / (SELECT SUM(
pg_database_size(datname))
                                       FROM pg_database) ) *
100)::numeric(6,3) AS pct
  FROM pg_database
  ORDER BY datname;*

Yeah, that is doable but I believe the OP is looking for generic functions that eliminate the need to write out the math for each query.
A quick and dirty example:

test=# create table percent_test(id int, subtotal numeric, sales_tax numeric);
CREATE TABLE
test=# insert into percent_test values (1, 128, 8.7), (2, 90, 8.5), (3, 256.35, 8.7), (4, 25.50, 8.5);
INSERT 0 4

test=# select id, subtotal, sales_tax as sales_tax_rate, percent_of(sales_tax, subtotal)::numeric(7, 2) as tax from percent_test;
 id | subtotal | sales_tax_rate |  tax
----+----------+----------------+-------
  1 |      128 |            8.7 | 11.14
  2 |       90 |            8.5 |  7.65
  3 |   256.35 |            8.7 | 22.30
  4 |    25.50 |            8.5 |  2.17
