One part per hundred is generally represented by the percent sign (%) and denotes one part per 100 (102) parts, and a value of 10−2.

One part per million (ppm) denotes one part per 1,000,000

Surveys carried out to state the ship condition prior to or after her chartering. The main purpose is to record deficiencies or damages.
