I am given gross pay and net pay. Have been asked to figure what percent was net pay.
gross pay = 374.00
net pay = 296.26
 
To find what percent one number is of another, we divide. This gives us the decimal form of the percent.

EGs:

What percent of 245 is 47.5?

47.5/245 = 0.193878 (rounded)

So, we see that 47.5 is 19.3878% of 245.

What percent of 47.5 is 245?

245/47.5 = 5.1579 (rounded)

So, we see that 245 is 515.79% of 47.5 .
