Yes, if you get both percents from the same undiminished whole, and then subtract. 73% of 100 is 73, and 72% of 100 is 72. 73 minus 72 equals 1, and 1 is 1% of 100. So the important question is, ...percent of what? Then you can determine what the difference will be.

If you calculate 73% of 100, which is 73, and then calculate 72% of 73, you will get 52.56. The subtraction will give you 20.44. 20.44 is 1% of 2044, and this doesn't add up at all...
