Here is the expression I am using:

Here is the result I get:
      K=1/n= .117924528301887


Here is the result that I want:
K=1/n= 11.79%

1.  How do I format this in Calc?

2.  Also, how can I begin to use a format code notation ##.## which I
found in the help file?
I cannot find any help file example.

I'm not sure if this meets your requirements, but you may be able to do what you want without the concatenation.

That is, simply format the cell with a custom format. That is, if your cell contains, say, the value 0.117924528301887, do this: Right click on the cell|Format cells|Numbers. Highlight "User defined" in the list; enter:
"K=1/n= "0.00%
into the "Format code" field, and click the green tick and OK. The cell should then show as:
K=1/n= 11.79%

Once you've done that, that format is available to format other similar cells.
