You can read IRS publication 15 to see how to apply the percentage method - Table 5 gives the amount to subtract for each exemption, and the tables that follow show the percentage to withhold:
Publication 15 (2012), (Circular E), Employer's Tax Guide

Don't forget also Socicial Security and Medicare.
