Wrong Ouput when using printf under SFU

I used printf to print the following under SFU,

lrs=`cat lrs`
hrs=`cat hrs`
tp=`cat tp`
printf “\n\n%5sM = $lrs Ohms%5sX = $hrs Ohms%5sT = $tp %%\n\n\n” > file
cat file

With the above script, I used %% after $tp only as a percentage sign and I get only the following output:

% T = value of tp



Any suggestions?
