Sorry that this hasn’t had a response yet. Here’s a formula that will work:

IF(Subtasks, (LEN({Subtasks}) - LEN(SUBSTITUTE({Subtasks}, "[x", "["))) / (LEN({Subtasks}) - LEN(SUBSTITUTE({Subtasks}, "[", ""))))

Format the field to show a percentage.

BTW, I recently released a video showing how this formula came together. Check it out to see some other options if the percentage isn't what you want:
