How can I calculate the proportion of students at an institution who are low-income or first-generation

I would like to use data from the College Scorecard to calculate the proportion of students who are low-income or first-generation at each institution. In the dataset, I only see "number of" low-income and first-generation student variables. How do you recommend I calculate the proportion, if possible? Divide by the number completed in fill-in-the-blank cohort? Thanks in advance!
