Do you mean parentheses?

1. either or both of a pair of signs ( ) used in writing to mark off an interjected explanatory or qualifying remark, to indicate separate groupings of symbols in mathematics and symbolic logic, etc.
2. Usually, parentheses. the material contained within these marks.
3. Grammar. a qualifying, explanatory, or appositive word, phrase, clause, or sentence that interrupts a syntactic construction without otherwise affecting it, having often a characteristic intonation and indicated in writing by commas, parentheses, or dashes, as in William Smith—you must know him—is coming tonight.

If not, check your spelling and plug in the new word in the site I've linked below.

If you mean parentheses, they are the writing tool used to set a phrase off from the rest of the sentence, for example (I don't really know what you mean) by your question. The (--and the--) are parentheses.

If you mean the word 'percentages,' that would be a number form of an average score of something, for example a grade given of the correct answers given on YA in percentages, say 50%.

I couldn't find "perentace" in my old dictionary at all.
