AWK Help

This is my code

Code:

AVAIL=`df -k /opt/mysql | awk '{
                         TEMP=$5
                         pos=index(TEMP, "capacity" )
                         printf "position is %d\n",pos
                         printf "our new temp is %s\n",substr(TEMP,1,11)
                         AVAIL=substr(TEMP,1,11)
}'`
##blocks=`df -b /opt/mysql`
echo AVAIL is "$AVAIL"

Now when i run this script it prints me this

Code:

AVAIL is position is 1
our new temp is capacity
position is 0
our new temp is 17%

Now the part of the code that I really want it the 17% from the capacity. So that i can use the 17% in a if statement.
