The difference between percentage and percentile is that the percentage can be calculated by multiplying 100 with a fraction. However, the percentile cannot be determined in a similar way. The percentage on one hand can be written as ratio or proportion while the percentile cannot be written in terms of ratios or proportions.

As per the common criteria, the best of five subjects include one language subject, i.e. English (or, the one as per the school/exam board), and 4 other subjects in which the student has obtained the highest marks. The marks obtained in subjects other than these are not considered for the “best of five” or the main percentage.
The percentage of the best of five can be calculated by dividing the total marks obtained in the best of five subjects divided by the total marks for these subjects and multiplying these marks by 100.
