It depends on what you are trying to calculate but the most common way I go to find percentage is to multiply by the number in decimal for ie. 50% = .5.
If you are looking for a way to do it quickly in your head I always take find out what 10% is like in the case of 100 it would be 10 so if I want to find 15% I know I can find 10% and if I cut what 10% is in half I will find 5% so likewise if I add what 10%+5% I will end up with 15%. For example, 10% of 100 is 10 half of 10 is 5 and 10+5 equals 15. If you need to find something like 20% or 30% I know that I can find 10% and instead of dividing(cutting it in half) I can multiply by 2 or 3. 10% + 10% =20%
I hope it helps, if you have more questions let me know!

Answer:
x = 3 ± i 
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
x² - 6x + 12 = 0 ( subtract 12 from both sides )
x² - 6x = - 12
Using the method of completing the square
add ( half the coefficient of the x- term )² to both sides
x² + 2(- 3)x + 9 = - 12 + 9
(x - 3)² = - 3 ( take the square root of both sides )
x - 3 = ± 
= ± i ( add 3 to both sides )
x = 3 ± i
