A priority of?

Hi,

If I were to give priorities for tasks in percent, would the following sentences be correct?

Give this task a priority of 80 percent.
Give this task a one percent priority.
Give this task priority one percent.

My guess is that the third option is wrong, but I'm still unsure about the first two.

Thanks!

I use a piece of software in which you have to give tasks a priority in percent.

e.g.

Task 1: Wash dishes - Priority: 80% (Very high priority)
Task 2: Watch TV - Priority: 15% (Very low priority)

Now I only have to teach my friends to use this application...

Still, a priority in percent makes no sense to me. I will let someone else respond to this.

Sorry but life sometimes makes little sense. Thanks for trying nonetheless! My only concern is explaining how the program works in correct English without getting funny looks. I have to give examples and let my friends try using the program.

"Try creating a new task and giving it [a priority of fifteen percent / a fifteen percent priority / priority fifteen percent]"

I hope i
