That's one in nineteen people btw! Nothing to scoff at! :D

Do you mean 1:19? Or that the actual value is 5.26%, which would give 1/19 instead of 1/20?

[–] paris@lemmy.blahaj.zone 0 points 1 month ago (1 children)

The percent value is about 5.3%, which is a tad better than 1 out of every 19 (1/19).

1/20 = 5%.

1/19 = 5.26%

1/18 = 5.56%

That's one of those things that, at least for me, sounds wrong when read but having whipped out the ol' calculator is correct. Wild.

Something about ~5% not being 1/20 always seems... Sus...
