If the amount of rows can change, you could try something like this:

SQL

SELECT TOP((SELECT COUNT(*) FROM MyTable) / 2) 
       * 
FROM MyTable
ORDER BY ColumnThatDefinesTheOrderForPercentage DESC

Or simply use PERCENT and order the data in descending order, like:

SQL

SELECT TOP(50) PERCENT
       *
FROM MyTable
ORDER BY ColumnThatDefinesTheOrderForPercentage DESC

hi,

You can use

select Top(50) * from Table Orderby(PrimayKeyColumn) desc 

//another way

select Top (50)* from Table where Id Not in (Select  Top(50) Id from Table )
