Town 1 Vote A = 3   B = 7  C =  9
Town 2 Vote A = 30 B = 70  C = 90
Town 3 Vote A = 3000 B = 7000  C = 9000

Below is a way!

Town 1 Vote A = 3   B = 7  C =  9

A = 15.789 % x 3 = 47.367
B = 36.842 % x 7 = 257.894
C = 47.368 % x 9 = 426.312

Town 2 Vote A = 30 B = 70  C = 90

A = 15.789 % x 30 = 473.67
B = 36.842 % x 70 = 2578.94
C = 47.368 % x 90 = 4263.12

Town 3 Vote A = 3000 B = 7000  C = 9000

A = 15.789 % x 3000 = 47367
B = 36.842 % x 7000 = 257894
C = 47.368 % x 9000 = 426312

Now we have new % Values based on how many people actually voted within each group!

So...

Town 1 A = 47.367
Town 2 A = 473.67
Town 3 A = 47367

Total = 47888.037

Converted to New reliable % Values! which shows that Town 3 A = 98.911 % is the most reliable.

Town 1 A = 0.098 %
Town 2 A = 0.989 %
Town 3 A = 98.911 %

But % shows us that size has nothing to do with what % thinks ? is the True result!

#3 Re: Help Me ! » What is a Reliable Set Regarding % ? » 2014-03-18 05:31:20

Reliable is More! as far as most people are concerned! but in the case of % any amount regarding the pool used is the same as another with a pool of 1 ? smile

Nothing that complicated! do you think 3 which = 30% is as reliable as 3000000 which = 30%

#5 Re: Help Me ! » What is a Reliable Set Regarding % ? » 2014-03-18 04:25:23

You started the word poll ?

What we want to know for sure is!... as an Example is any 30% of something!

as reliable as any other 30% of something ?

#7 Re: Help Me ! » What is a Reliable Set Regarding % ? » 2014-03-18 04:11:45

Which is Best (3 that equals 30%) or (3000 that equals 30%) ?

#8 Re: Help Me ! » What is a Reliable Set Regarding % ? » 2014-03-18 04:03:30

So if 2 actual results have the same % which is best ? 3 or 3000 both are equal to 30% and both are actual results!

#9 Re: Help Me ! » What is a Reliable Set Regarding % ? » 2014-03-18 04:00:57

So what's your Verdict  more is true ? or % is wrong ?

#10 Re: Help Me ! » What is a Reliable Set Regarding % ? » 2014-03-18 03:47:00

More! is generally regarded as being reliable! but the % function as shown distorts this into a ?

#11 Re: Help Me ! » What is a Reliable Set Regarding % ? » 2014-03-18 03:33:03

So I think you agree with me that many Math functions lie!

How can we rely on % being True ? % knows nothing about being reliable or as you say stable smile

There has to be a better way of calculating % ?

#12 Re: Help Me ! » What is a Reliable Set Regarding % ? » 2014-03-18 03:08:26

So if 3 People agree on something converted to 30% do you think it is equal in a reliable way as 3000 converted to 30% ?

#13 Re: Help Me ! » What is a Reliable Set Regarding % ? » 2014-03-18 02:56:17

What I mean by reliable is ...

Better example

Town 1 Vote A = 3   B = 7  C =  9

Town 2 Vote A = 30 B = 70  C = 90

Town 3 Vote A = 3000 B = 7000  C = 9000

Looking at all the Vote examples for A from the 3 Towns  3,30,3000

Does every one think that the % examples for A is an example of something that is Fair & reliable ?

A Wins in every example and gets in ? but can a reliability factor be built in ?

What I mean is... Town 1 total = 19 Town 2 total = 190 Town 3 total = 19000

So the Pool of voters is much smaller in Town 1 compared to Town 3 ?

Can a minimum/maximum Pool of voters Etc.. be used as a reliability factor ?

Maybe knowing all of a countries average Town population's could be a way ?

#14 Re: Help Me ! » What is a Reliable Set Regarding % ? » 2014-03-14 02:26:26

Town 1 Vote A = 3   B = 7  C =  9

Town 2 Vote A = 30 B = 70  C = 90


Look at the above in a Voting way for something!

Example A there is a BIG! difference in 3 & 30 People from Town 1 & Town 2

A = 3   B = 7  C =  9

A = 30 B = 70  C = 90

The Problem with the above is that they all have the same % for each! as a Group

But the second line must be more reliable because there are more examples! So how do you tell the % function that! ?

How many do we need for any Example to be Reliable ?


A = ?  B = ? C = ?
