thnx @excowboy.... In this Rx means Recieved and Tx means sent....?

Output:

What is the duration/starting time of Rx packets and Tx packets RX bytes and TX bytes calculation? 
If I want to calculate Throughput percentage of bytes then following formula is true?

Throughput= (RX bytes/Sec + TX bytes/Sec) / Link Speed * 100
