...3 out of 9 is 30%

No.

3.0 / 9.0 = 0.33333333333333etc

3.0/10.0 = 0.3

Conceptually ... three is a larger part of nine than it is of ten. Ten is greater than nine.

Yes! I realized that I got that one ass-end backwards too at the same time, but didn’t correct it when I corrected the 3 out of 10!

That is so embarrassing...I am still face palming myself over that one!

Ah well...live and learn!
