Activity2         20%     Sub activity
Activity2         70%     Sub activity
Activity3         30%     Sub activity
Activity3         30%     Sub activity

You do something like this:

Select the data , Hit Alt + D + P and three times enter.You got a pivot table in new sheet.

In values take average instead of sum , If the format is not in percentage , Hit CTRL + SHIFT+ 5 , you have the numbers in percentage format now.

I hope this would help
