    20%

    Explanation:

    Data provided in the question:

    Initial total = $23,479

    Deposit = 25% of Total i. e initial total

    = 0.25 * $23,479

    = $5,869.75

    Therefore,

    Final total = $23,479 + $5,869.75

    = $29,348.75

    Now,

    let the percent of total removed to be 'x%'

    Thus,

    According to the question

    $29,348.75 - [ x% * ($29,348.75) ] = $23,479

    or

    x% * ($29,348.75) = $29,348.75 - $23,479

    or

    x% = $5,869.75 : $29,348.75

    or

    x% = 0.2

    or

    x = 0.2 * 100%

    or

    x = 20%
