oop - C# interface method ambiguity

Consider the following example:

interface IBase1
{
   int Percentage { get; set; }
}

interface IBase2
{
   int Percentage { get; set; }
}

interface IAllYourBase : IBase1, IBase2
{
}

class AllYourBase : IAllYourBase
{
   int percentage;

   int Percentage {
      get { return percentage; }
      set { percentage = value; }
   }
}

void Foo()
{
   IAllYourBase iayb = new AllYourBase();
   int percentage = iayb.Percentage; // Fails to compile. Ambiguity between 'Percentage' property.
}

In the example above, there is ambiguity between which Percentage property to call. Assuming the IBase1 and IBase2 interfaces may not be changed, how would I go about resolving this ambiguity in the cleanest, most preferred way?

Update

Based on the responses I was getting for using explicit interface implementation, I want to mention that while this does solve the problem it does not solve it in an ideal way for me because I use my AllYourBase object as an IAllYourBase most of the time, never as an IBase1 or IBase2. This is mostly because IAllYourBase also has interface methods (I failed to detail those in my code snippet above because I thought they were irrelevant) that are implemented by AllYourBase and I want to access those too. Casting back and forth all the time will get very tedious and result in messy code.

I did try one solution that involved defining the Percentage property in IAllYourBase and not using explicit interface implementation, which seemed to get rid of the compiler error at least:

class IAllYourBase : IBase1, IBase2
{
   int Percentage { get; set; }
}

Is this a valid solution?

Implement explicitly:

public class AllYourBase : IBase1, IBase2
{
    int IBase1.Percentage { get{ return 12; } }
    int IBase2.Percentage { get{ return 34; } }
}

If you do this, you can of course treat your non-ambigous properties just like normal.

IAllYourBase ab = new AllYourBase();
ab.SomeValue = 1234;

However, if you want to access the percentage prop this will not work (Suppose it did, which value would be expected in return?)

int percent = ab.Percentage; // Will not work.

you need to specify which percentage to return. And this is done by casting to the correct interface:

int b1Percent = ((IBase1)ab).Percentage;

As you say, you can redefine the properties in the interface:

interface IAllYourBase : IBase1, IBase2
{
    int B1Percentage{ get; }
    int B2Percentage{ get; }
}

class AllYourBase : IAllYourBase 
{
   public int B1Percentage{ get{ return 12; } }
   public int B2Percentage{ get{ return 34; } }
   IBase1.Percentage { get { return B1Percentage; } }
   IBase2.Percentage { get { return B2Percentage; } }
}

Now you have resolved the ambiguity by distinct names instead.
