Calculate percentage Javascript

I have a question about javascript logic what I use to get percent of two inputs from my text fields. Here is my code:

    var pPos = $('#pointspossible').val();
    var pEarned = $('#pointsgiven').val();
    
    var perc = ((pEarned/pPos) * 100).toFixed(3);
    $('#pointsperc').val(perc);

For some reason if my inputs are 600 and 200, my result suppose to be 33.333 but I’m getting 3.333. If I hard code my values this works fine. If anyone can help I appreciate that.

Answer

It seems working :

HTML :

 <input type='text' id="pointspossible"/>
<input type='text' id="pointsgiven" />
<input type='text' id="pointsperc" disabled/>

JavaScript :

    $(function(){

    $('#pointspossible').on('input', function() {
      calculate();
    });
    $('#pointsgiven').on('input', function() {
     calculate();
    });
    function calculate(){
        var pPos = parseInt($('#pointspossible').val()); 
        var pEarned = parseInt($('#pointsgiven').val());
        var perc="";
        if(isNaN(pPos) || isNaN(pEarned)){
            perc=" ";
           }else{
           perc = ((pEarned/pPos) * 100).toFixed(3);
           }

        $('#pointsperc').val(perc);
    }

});
