Oddbean new post about login | logout They are rounded up …
Do the math, they are not rounded. They all calculate exactly.
Not sure what you mean. The math outputs a rounded percentage that matches what you see there.
The number of votes was calculated from the percentages, not vice versa. https://i.nostr.build/Svncryl0oWNDYd8S.jpg https://i.nostr.build/ARHk03onqzoc59pA.jpg https://i.nostr.build/d9IALMjRO8ZLTrXH.jpg
Bro, what? You have vote tallies before you do percentages…
What are the chances the actual vote would work out to perfect single digit percentages?
100 😂 that’s how percentages work. They come out to exact math you’re calculating from when rounded up…
This is a great troll btw
I bust me missing a piece of information, an image of some pretext or something because it seems fine to me. 1. You get your tally 2. You do the percentage math of total tally 3. Excel will output depending on your cell decimal settings. Not sure what else y’all talking about
The tally was generated from these inputs: 1. Total categories (2 candidates + ‘Other’ = 3) 2. Desired percentage breakdown (lazily, all given in 1 decimal precision) 3. Total voters You’d have to play with 2 or 3, or let an algorithm/program do that for you, to get it to all work out so evenly.
