Your x variable is a data frame. The scales::percent() function does not work on data frames. It might work on the individual columns in the data frame. You probably ought to re-read your preferred introduction to R material on the difference between data frames and the columns in data frames.
Try scales::percent( sp[[ 1 ]] ) Do beware that that function converts your numbers into character strings, unlike Excel. It is often more practical to simply multiply by 100 and forego the percent sign. -- Sent from my phone. Please excuse my brevity.
