Oracle: how to get percent of total by a query?

I have the following query and its result is very unexpected to me:

select stato, (count(1) *100) / sum(1)
from LOG_BONIFICA
group by stato;

it returns 100 for all rows. Should it be different ?

Use ratio_to_report analytic function:

SELECT STATO, 
    COUNT(1) STATO_COUNT, 
    RATIO_TO_REPORT(COUNT(1)) OVER() * 100 STATO_PERCENT
FROM LOG_BONIFICA
GROUP BY STATO

so you don't need to calculate total row count and ratio yourself.

count(1) is equal to sum(1) in your case.

Try something like this:

18:39:36 SYSTEM@dwal> ed
Wrote file S:\\tools\buffer.sql

  1  select owner,
  2         count(*) group_cnt,
  3         sum(count(*)) over() total_cnt,
  4         round(100*(count(*) / sum(count(*)) over ()),2) perc
  5    from dba_objects
  6   group by owner
  7*  order by 4 desc
18:39:57 SYSTEM@dwal> /

update: or even simplier with ratio_to_report

Are you referring to the following? You need to find the total some separately.

Table:

ID  NAME    AMOUNT  STATE
1   john    1000    fl
2   jane    5000    ga
3   james   2000    ca
4   tom     6000    ga
5   tim     8000    fl
6   jim     2000    ga
7   kate    8000    fl
8   jack    3000    tx

Results 1:

STATE   SUM(AMOUNT)
ca      2000
fl      17000
ga      13000
tx      3000

Final Query :

select t1.state, concat(
  round(((sum(t1.amount)/t2.total))*100,2),
'%') as pct
from t1, 
(select sum(amount) as total from t1) as t2
group by t1.state
;

Results:

   STATE    COUNT(T1.ID)    SUM(T1.AMOUNT)  TOTAL   PCT
   ca       1               2000           35000    5.71%
   fl       3               17000          35000    48.57%
   ga       3               13000          35000    37.14%
   tx       1               3000           35000    8.57%
