      This depends on the margarine because they are not all the same.. In general margarine contains more unsaturated fats (“good”) while butter contains more saturated fats. Margarines also contain more trans fats in general which are also considered “bad” fats.

      As Ciara has said it really depends on the margarine, because the quantity changes a lot between them. Butter has around 80-82% of milk fat.
