To find the percentage difference between two numbers, we first need to calculate the absolute difference between them. In this case, the absolute difference between 250 and 182 is 68.

Next, we need to find what percentage of the original number the absolute difference represents. To do this, we divide the absolute difference by the original number (250) and then multiply by 100 to get the percentage.

So, the percentage difference between 250 and 182 is:

Absolute difference = 68
Percentage difference = (Absolute difference / Original number) x 100
Percentage difference = (68 / 250) x 100
Percentage difference = 27.2%

Therefore, the percentage difference between 250 and 182 is 27.2%. This means that 182 is 27.2% less than 250.
