what is 72:49 as a percentage??
Can you be more specific?
Here, we can find the percentage of 72 out of 49 only.
Am I right?

I believe it would be 72 / (72 + 49) which would be 59.5%.

As Prakash Panneer says, there's a bit of confusion in the question.
Let's say you have two types of objects A and B in the ratio 72:49.
If you want to find what percentage of all of the objects are A, then pi man's method is correct.
If you want A as a percentage of B, then you would do 72/49 * 100% ≈ 147%.
You could use a similar method to find B as a percentage of A.
Why did the vector cross the road?
It wanted to be normal.

Correct. Read Ratios.
