86.96 wt.% permanganate, 13.14 wt.% ammonium ions.
Explanation:
First, we must make sure that we have the correct molecular formula for ammonium permanganate.
Then we add up all of the element gram-masses to find the total gram-molecular weight of the compound. Then we take the gram-mass of the permanganate ion and divide it by the total mass to get the relative percentage composition.
