The % varies according to how difficult the paper is.
2016 Edexcel it was 142/200 ie 71% - UMS are not used in GCSE Maths.
2016 AQA was 116/175 ie 67%
2016 OCR was 122/200 ie 61%

To add, a C in a Foundation paper will require more marks than a C in a Higher paper, due to the lower difficulty of Foundation.

60% UMS (if applicable), not necessarily 60% of the raw marks.
