Update: The below answer shows a percentage based on total data but @William Surya Permana has an excellent answer that updates based on the shown data https://stackoverflow.com/a/49717859/2737978

In options you can pass in a tooltips object (more can be read at the chartjs docs)

A field of tooltips, to get the result you want, is a callbacks object with a label field. label will be a function that takes in the tooltip item which you have hovered over and the data which makes up your graph. Just return a string, that you want to go in the tooltip, from this function.

Here is an example of what this can look like

tooltips: {
  callbacks: {
    label: function(tooltipItem, data) {
      //get the concerned dataset
      var dataset = data.datasets[tooltipItem.datasetIndex];
      //calculate the total of this data set
      var total = dataset.data.reduce(function(previousValue, currentValue, currentIndex, array) {
        return previousValue + currentValue;
      });
      //get the current items value
      var currentValue = dataset.data[tooltipItem.index];
      //calculate the precentage based on the total and current item, also this does a rough rounding to give a whole number
      var percentage = Math.floor(((currentValue/total) * 100)+0.5);

      return percentage + "%";
    }
  }
}

and a full example with the data you provided

var randomScalingFactor = function() {
  return Math.round(Math.random() * 100);
};
var randomColorFactor = function() {
  return Math.round(Math.random() * 255);
};
var randomColor = function(opacity) {
  return 'rgba(' + randomColorFactor() + ',' + randomColorFactor() + ',' + randomColorFactor() + ',' + (opacity || '.3') + ')';
};

The usage has changed in 3.x and higher versions, so I will attach a method for this.

const data: ChartData = {
    labels: ["Red", "Blue", "Yellow", "Green", "Purple", "Orange"],
    datasets: [
        {
            data: excerciseData,
            backgroundColor: [
                "rgba(255, 99, 132, 0.5)",
                "rgba(54, 162, 235, 0.5)",
                "rgba(255, 206, 86, 0.5)",
                "rgba(75, 192, 192, 0.5)",
                "rgba(153, 102, 255, 0.5)",
                "rgba(255, 159, 64, 0.5)"
            ]
        }
    ]
};
...

     callbacks: {
                    label: tooltipItem => {
                        let total = 0;
                        data.datasets[0].data.forEach(num => {
                            total += num as number;
                        });
                        const currentValue = data.datasets[0].data[tooltipItem.dataIndex] as number;

                        const percentage = ((currentValue * 100) / total).toFixed(1) + "%";

                        return `${currentValue}(${percentage})`;
                    },
                    title: tooltipItems => {
                        return tooltipItems[0].label;
                    }
                }

I came across this question because I needed to show percentage on stacked bar charts. The percentage I needed was per stacked columns. I accomplished this by modifying Willian Surya's answer like this:

tooltips: {
  callbacks: {
    label: function(tooltipItem, data) {
      var index = tooltipItem.index;
      var currentValue = data.datasets[tooltipItem.datasetIndex].data[index];
      var total = 0;
      data.datasets.forEach(function(el){
        total = total + el.data[index];
      });
      var percentage = parseFloat((currentValue/total*100).toFixed(1));
      return currentValue + ' (' + percentage + '%)';
    },
    title: function(tooltipItem, data) {
      return data.datasets[tooltipItem[0].datasetIndex].label;
    }
  }
}

This is the final result:

Simply use this:

const options = {
    responsive: true,
    plugins: {
        tooltip: {
            callbacks: {
                label: (Item) => '%' + (Item.formattedValue) + ' | ' + Item.label
            }
        }
    },
};

In 3.5 it will be:

options: {
  plugins: {
    tooltip: {
      callbacks: {
        label: function(context){
          var data = context.dataset.data,
              label = context.label,
              currentValue = context.raw,
              total = 0;

          for( var i = 0; i < data.length; i++ ){
            total += data[i];
          }
          var percentage = parseFloat((currentValue/total*100).toFixed(1));

          return label + ": " +currentValue + ' (' + percentage + '%)';
        }
      }
    }
  }
}

but better, dynamic version:

options: {
  plugins: {
    tooltip: {
      callbacks: {
        label: function(context){
          var label = context.label,
              currentValue = context.raw,
              total = context.chart._metasets[context.datasetIndex].total;

          var percentage = parseFloat((currentValue/total*100).toFixed(1));

          return label + ": " +currentValue + ' (' + percentage + '%)';
        }
      }
    }
  }
}

For those who want to display dynamic percentages based on what currently displayed on the chart (not based on total data), you can try this code:

 tooltips: {
    callbacks: {
      label: function(tooltipItem, data) {
        var dataset = data.datasets[tooltipItem.datasetIndex];
        var meta = dataset._meta[Object.keys(dataset._meta)[0]];
        var total = meta.total;
        var currentValue = dataset.data[tooltipItem.index];
        var percentage = parseFloat((currentValue/total*100).toFixed(1));
        return currentValue + ' (' + percentage + '%)';
      },
      title: function(tooltipItem, data) {
        return data.labels[tooltipItem[0].index];
      }
    }
  },
