Just a scaling question

[Don Boose]

Thanks for the question, Matthew, and thanks for the handy table, JR. Although I have long known the formula, I took the opportunity to copy out your table into my paper modeling notebook for quick reference.

My (fumbled) point was that to get from a decimal number to a percentage, you simply multiply the decimal value by 100.

Looker was (quite correctly) correcting what appeared to be an error on my part with regards to proper rounding.

Peace - apparently my smilies didn't sufficiently convey the humorous tone I intended for that post You're correct, multiplying by 100 is necessary to get the percentage value needed as an input to printing programs. And yes, the correct rounding for 2/3 is 67%, 66.7%, 66.67%, etc, depending on the level of precision your printing program allows

Runway: On behalf of the forum, I personally apologise for any "grief" that you have received.

Maybe the Nueralizer has a "Not Quite" setting?
