Catholics believe there are 46 books in the Old Testament and 27 in the New Testament.

The extra seven books in the Catholic versions of the Bible are called the Deutero-canonicals and include the books of Tobit, Judith, Wisdom of Solomon, Sirach, Baruch, and 1st and 2nd Maccabees. Some Protestant versions of the Bible also include these seven books but they are not considered to be inspired by God and are generally called the Apocryphal Books.

What percentage of the Bible is the Old Testament?

The Bible has 66 books. 39 of which are in the Old Testament. That's roughly 59% of the Bible. The math above, while quick, is not entirely accurate. A number of books in the Old Testament such as Psalms and Jeremiah, are incredibly long. In fact, the nine longest books in the Bible are all in the Old Testament. Of the seven shortest books in the Bible, six are from the New Testament. Therefore, it is probably more accurate to say that 75% of the Bible's pages are Old Testament.
