Roughly 47 BTC (~100,000 $) were paid by a total of ~310 users.
There have been 300,000 infected PCs reported [1].
If we asume that a payment is done per machine (at least thats what the WannaCry 'rules' demand), than only 0,1% of infected users pay.
Seems, crime does not pay (at least it does not pay as much as expected) ;-)
