Pandas version checks

  • I have checked that this issue has not already been reported.

  • I have confirmed this bug exists on the latest version of pandas.

  • I have confirmed this bug exists on the main branch of pandas.

Reproducible Example

import pandas as pd

pd.DataFrame(data=[1, 2, 3], columns=['value']).describe(percentiles=[0.29, 0.57, 0.58])

 	value
count 	3.00
mean 	2.00
std 	1.00
min 	1.00
29.0% 	1.58
50% 	2.00
57.0% 	2.14
58.0% 	2.16
max 	3.00

Issue Description

The indexes ['29.0%', '57.0%', '58.0%'] should be named as ['29%', '57%', '58%'].

Expected Behavior

pd.DataFrame(data=[1, 2, 3], columns=['value']).describe(percentiles=[0.29, 0.57, 0.58]).index

# Output:
Index(['count', 'mean', 'std', 'min', '29.0%', '50%', '57.0%', '58.0%', 'max'], dtype='object')

# Expected:
Index(['count', 'mean', 'std', 'min', '29%', '50%', '57%', '58%', 'max'], dtype='object')
