Converting centiMorgans into percentages. In order to get an approximate percentage of shared DNA from a Family Tree DNA Family Finder test, take all of the segments above 5 cM, add them together and then divide by 68. The way the calculation works is that your total genome in cMs with the Family Finder test is 6770 cM.
you share 1/4 of your DNA, on average with your parents' full non-identical-twin siblings. You share 50% of your DNA with each parent. Each person shares 50% of their DNA with full siblings, 25% with half siblings, and 100% with identical twin siblings. So between you and a parent's full sibling, you share 50% * 50% = 25% of your dna on average.
