This IS NOT HOW MATH WORKS.
It is either a decimal or a %, not BOTH.
Is the reason the idiots thinking it isn't as bad as it is based on poor math skills not understanding the difference between a decimal and a %. You don't solve for the decimal and just plop a % at the end of it.
It is either:
.0003125
-or-
.03125%
Are all these COVID truthers just pulling % of stuff from literature and then running their own calculations, doing the math and adding a % randomly at the end and seeing, SEE, NOT AS LIKELY AS LOTTERY! All because they didnt pay attention during basic stats class because when would they ever need that stuff, they are going to be pumping gas for a living.
My god, people are dumb.
