Hi :)
Ok, say the numbers are written along the top row such that
A1 = 646.15
A2 = 556.85
then
A4 = A2/A1
Click on A4 and go up to the menus at the top to choose
Format - Cell - Number
in the first box "Category" select "Percentage"
I think it's better to avoid keying in the currency symbol and just format those cells as
"Currency" instead of as "Percentages". That way you still get the currency
symbol anyway but don't have to type it in. It also avoids confusions. Note that i left a gap
between the data and the calculation purely because i think it looks nicer.
Thanks for the solution.
I feel stupid for making it seem hard. :-)

Tom :)

I have a number $646.15
and a number $556.85
How do I make a formula in a new cell that is the percentage of the first
number that equals the second number?
