Question regular expressions

Hello,

Let say I have a string with content "Free 100%". How can extract only "100" using ksh? I would this machanism to work if instead of "100" there is any kind of combination of numbers(ex. "32", "1238", "1"). I want to get only the digits.
I have written something like this:

result="Free 100%"
final=`expr "$result" : "Free *\(.*\)"`

It returns "100%". I still can not elimanate the "%". Please help :-)

Thank you!
