Then take the px from the padding on .cake and divide by site width.
e.g. .cake padding 65px divided by 1000px = 0.065
then move decimal two places to the right = 6.5 and thats your percentage 6.5%

Also without a link to the code challenge you are having issues with someone would have guess which one it is, to be able to test out their solution.
