I have one dollar amount:
667,124.17
I subtract another dollar amount:
434,776.12
The difference is:
232,348.05
How can I figure out what percentage of 667,124.17 the difference is?

divide the 232,348.05 by the 667,124.17 and then multiply that by 100

I learned it a bit different (in the end it is the same actually)
667,124.17 = 100% 232,348.05 = x%
232,348.05 x 100 / 667,124.17 = 34,8%

7. I always found it easy to imagine it when I used 1 % |
|
1% of 667,124.17 is 6,671.2417
Now I just have to find out how many times the 1% fits into 232,348.05
232,348.05 / 6,671.2417 = 34.8283064
