Latest: Floyd's Final List for September fight:

Actually it's like:

'Hey Fel .......... what % do you think you have of getting an A in biology?

I say.. Around 50%

Hey Fel.. what % do you think you have of getting an B in biology?

I say around 65%

That adds up to 115%

It does have to add up to 100%.

 

You mean that your uncle 'LiL T', who apparently was a co-worker of Ellerbe (back in the day of Vicious L) over 20 years ago, just rocked up to Ellerbe and not only got an answer but a specific breakdown of the 5 opponents and percentages of each fight happening? :rofl

 

This dude is hilarious...

 

Even now Paquiao is still the most exciting fight. By far.

 

You are using the % symbol.

That is percentile, a percentage.

Percentage is out of the whole, or 100%. It has to be.

 

You were giving chances of one of these fighters being in the September
fight with Floyd. So the percentages are about the same fight. The only way
your percentages work is if you allow for multiple opponents. And that would
indicate a 0.45% chance of Floyd fighting all fighters you mentioned. But please
carry on, math is not for everyone.

 

In this example no, because each fighter is fighting their own individual fight.

But in your example, where he can only fight one of those listed fighters in September, the sum of the parts must equal the whole.

 

If I said there was a 99% chance of dating Girl #2, I would then automatically be insinuating that there is a 1% chance of dating Girl #1, or less than 1% if I left open the option to remain single.

 

haha

it needs to add up to 100 buddy.

But keep trying.

This thread is hilarious.

I take it Maths isn't your strong suit

 

Wrong Nonito, Wrong!

He's talking about being involved in a polygamous relationship. It's a trick question.
