As far as I'm aware, it has no particular use in the atmosphere.

Argon is inert which means it undergoes no* natural reactions. It doesn't do anything.

It exists because of this fact, also. It's pretty hard/impossible to get rid of or convert/use.

It does have some pretty important scientific uses, though. Such as providing inert atmospheres, thermal insulation and lighting.

*It has no common natural reactions you would ever see in your lifetime (if you could witness reactions on such a scale). Given an infinite amount of time you would see all things occur. Seems nit-picky but this is the reality of physics and chemistry.

Why is the percentage of argon in the earths atmosphere today the same as it was in the earths early atmosphere?

Argon is a noble gas and does not react with other elements in the atmosphere, so it has remained relatively constant over time. The initial percentage of argon in the Earth's atmosphere was likely determined by the gases present during the planet's formation. The lack of significant processes that remove or add argon to the atmosphere has helped to maintain its percentage over time.
