If you want to keep the number as it is, use the custom number format

 

0.00\%

 

Keep in mind that you'll have to divide by 100 if you want to perform calculations with the number.

Alternatively, with 1,184893 in A2, enter the formula =A2/100 in B2 and format B2 as a percentage.

You can then use B2 in calculations directly.

@Hans Vogelaar thanks, but I don't have that option, only these:

What platform are you on? It should be possible to enter a custom number format in Excel for Windows and for Mac. This is not (yet) available in the online (browser) version of Excel.

@Hans Vogelaar
I have same options in both of them, in online versión and Excel for Windows.

This is in Excel for Windows. 0.00\% is not in the list, but I have typed it myself in the Type box:
