Add padding within an input text field to prevent overlapping

So i currently have the following bit of code:

Trouble I am having is the value I type overlaps the percentage sign. Im not sure how to go about adding some padding or alignment to prevent the overlap.

Any ideas?

.percentBlock {
    width: 1500px;
}

.percentageSign {
    position: relative;
    right:20px;
}
<span class="percentBlock">
    <input type="number" max="100" accuracy="2" min="0" style="text-align:right;">
<span class="percentageSign">%</span></span>

Take a look at this also

* {
	box-sizing:border-box;
	-webkit-box-sizing:border-box;
	-ms-box-sizing:border-box;
	-moz-box-sizing:border-box;
}
.percentBlock {
	width: 200px;
	float:left;
	position:relative;
}
.percentageSign {
	position: absolute;
	right: 30px;
    top:1px;
}
.percentBlock input {
	padding-left:70.5%;
	position:relative;
	width:100%;
}
<span class="percentBlock">
	<input type="number" max="100" accuracy="2" min="0">
<span class="percentageSign">%</span></span>

.percentBlock {
  width: 1500px;
 }
 .percentBlock input {
  text-align:left;
  width:55px;
 }
 .percentageSign {
	position: relative;
    right:35px;
}
<span class="percentBlock">
 <input type="number" max="100" accuracy="2" min="0">
<span class="percentageSign">%</span></span>

I think this is what you are looking for.

You can use the following solution, so the % is placed after the number controls:

.percentBlock {
  width: 1500px;
}
.percentBlock input[type=number] {
  padding-right:20px;
}
.percentageSign {
  position: relative;
  right:20px;
}
<span class="percentBlock">
  <input type="number" max="100" accuracy="2" min="0" style="text-align:right;">
  <span class="percentageSign">%</span>
</span>
