Formula to calculate 2 dates within 5days

Hello,
I would like to write a formula that will calculate 2 dates based on this criteria.
Titled: Percentage of Requests "In Progress" within 5days
- I'm creating a control sheet that includes percentages only
- On a separate (our main sheet where things are tracked) sheet I have a "created date column" and a "date put in progress column".
- On my control sheet i would like it to calculate the percentage of requests put in progress within 5days.
Please help! I've tried so many things.

Can we see some screenshots to better understand it?

To calculate days you simply do =[date put in progress]@row - [created date column]@row
You can use that in your formulas. Perhaps you can create a checkbox column that says:
=if([date put in progress]@row - [created date column]@row <= 5, 1, 0)
That will flag all rows that meet the requirement of less than 5 days.
Then you can use that and divide the number of flags by the count of the total number of rows to get percentage.

based on the screen shot ive only been able to solve 1 part of the formula and get it to only count the requests assigned. I need to to count the number of requests that took longer that 5 days to be put in progress.
