brain dead math help please.....

Posted by groiny (aka groiny) Oct 11 '18, 14:22

I have 2 tables

One has 79,672 records
One has 52,785 records

How many more records does #1 have than #2????

Is it 34%?

Responses:

79k is a 51% increase over 52k. 52k is a 34% decrease from 79k. -- nm - Max Oct 11, 14:36 3
