Um, yes it is? [0]

If it's not, I would love for you to correct me.

total = 4874326

amount = 4015000

4015000 ÷ 4874326 = 0.823703626

1/5 = 0.2

4/5 = 0.8

Unless you mean it's an awkward phrasing, in which case you would be right.

(No, I haven't taken a statistics course, but the percentage algorithm is taught in like 5th grade, and I don't really need anything more complex than that here.)

(I would also like to note that if I have said something stupid/I said what I wanted to say in a stupid way, theres no way to fix it now even if I wanted to.)

I didn't care for the phrasing at all. By using 4/5, that implies lower, and stands out far more than the word double. The conclusion drawn by most would be "less than", which is quite misleading from the actual data of "almost double".

Edit: There is also an edit button if you wanted to fix your wording.

That's understandable.

You can't edit a post after it's been unchanged for more than an hour. (Or somewhere in that vicinity.)
