I've read that Romanian is about 70% Latin.
What percentage of Latin is in the Italian Language?

Depends what Latin. Italian has a newer form of Latin where Romanian has an archaic form of Latin in the vocabulary, and the percentage varies across the regions.

Regarding Italian regionional dialects, I've read that the Tuscan dialect is the closest Italian dialect to Latin. What percentage of Latin exists today in the Tuscan dialect?
