How do I calculate my body fat% using skinfold calipers - UK-Muscle Body Building Community

How do I calculate my body fat% using skinfold calipers. The instructions are confusing because I measured 52mm where the instructions told me too and I cant find my body fat % because it does not show 52mm on the chart. The chart only goes a little above 30mm. What do I have to do?
