What do I enter for "percentage reported by others" when reporting that you sold property as a principal residence?

If you were the only owner of the property the percentage reported by others would be zero.  If you owned the property jointly with your spouse and are doing your tax returns together TurboTax would ask "percentage reported by (spouses name)" and you would enter whatever percentage your spouse owned, usually 50%.
