Divide the second number by the first and multiply by 100.
i.e. 662.23/ 988.72 x100 = 66.98 %
It only looks difficult because of the clumsy numbers it has, but with a calculator even I can do it.

For the general case of:
What percentage is A of B?
Let
P = percent that A is of B
Then
P = 100 Ã (B / A)
In your case:
What % of 988.72 is 662.23?
A = 988.72
B = 662.23
Therefore
P = 100 Ã (B / A) = 100 Ã (662.23 / 988.72) = 66.9785176794%

set it up as a proportion
662.23/988.72 = x/100
cross multiply and divide
you get approx 66.977% with the right amount of sig figs
or you can divide 662.23 by 988.72 and then multiply by 100 to get the percent

It's easy by a little concentration!:
662.23/988.72=0.6697
( 0.6697 / 1 )=( x / 100 )
then (x) = (0.6697 * 100 ) = 66.97
