Hi wordstrings,

Do you have an SC in which this language appears? Off the top of my head, I'd say that there's nothing inherently wrong with the phrase "percentage greater", but context is a big part of certain phrases and usage. We really need to see an entire prompt with its answer choices to see if this phrase is used correctly.
