OK, lets start with some example numbers. The numbers we are going to use are 5 and 9. To find the percentage, we must divide 5 by 9, so we get 5/9. Then, we actually divide 5 by 9 and get 0.555555555555555... Then, to put it into a percentage, we move the decimal point over 2 spaces to the right, and get 55.555555555555555%. Therefore, 9 is 55.555555555555% larger than 5.
