1. Are you sure 100%? 2. He is real Tom Cruise 100% to my eyes. (He is not Tom Cruise. He is a fake Tom Cruise.) 3. Do you agree 100%? How do the sentences with [100%] look? Do you use in this way with [100%]? Do they look awkward? Thanks in advance!!!

The use of "100%" in your sentences is understandable, but it can sound a bit awkward or unnatural. Here's how they could be improved to sound more natural: 1. Are you 100% sure? (This is the most natural and commonly used phrasing.) 2. He looks 100% like Tom Cruise to me. (This sounds more natural for the context you're describing, where the person resembles Tom Cruise but isn't actually him.) 3. Do you 100% agree? or Do you agree completely? (Both options are correct, but using "completely" can sometimes sound more natural.) In everyday English, "100%" is often used for emphasis, but it's usually placed before or after an adjective (e.g., 100% sure, 100% agree) rather than in random positions within the sentence.

The third one is okay. For the others, I would suggest: Are you 100% sure? / Are you completely sure? He really looks like Tom Cruise. / He looks just like Tom Cruise.
