Default I have a question about Baker's Percentage

I'm going to culinary school but I need a little help with understanding
Baker's Percentage. If I'm given the total weight and the total percentage,
and given that the weight of all the flours is 100%, How much does the sum
of all the flours weigh?

Do I add up the total percentage and divide that by the combined flour
(100%) percentage? Then I do something with the total weight? Could
somebody please explain? Thanks!

Rich
