Simple decimal mathematics confused so many people with that discussion

The thread clearly said 0.5% is the same as 0.005. Not 0.5% is the same as 0.005%. Looks like you’re the one not understanding.

No, the op of that thread later edited it.

His initial arguments was 0.5% and 0.005% is the same. % was added to both

0.5% and 0.005 is the same but not 0.5% and 0.005%

0.5% is an expression of a value multiplied by 0.5/100.


0.005 is a decimal value of 5/1000.

How are these values the same thing ?

How can a percentile value applied to a variable be equal to a decimal expression ?


0.5% of X will not yield the same expression for another variable , Y.

0.005 is a stand alone value .

You are the crass illiterate here.

One is constant applied to a varriable while the other is a value on its own.

Is 0.5% of a million same value as that to a billion .

Think .

If % is not added to both, then they are the same but if added , they are not.

This should be basic decimal mathematics now

Illiterate.

When you put a percentile sign after a number it becomes a constant applied to any given varriable.

0.5% is not a number but a constant used to derive a value over any given variable real number.

0.5% is not equal to 0.005.

No.

0.5% isn't even a number but rather an expression that is applied to any given real number.


0.5% standing on its own does not exist on the number scale.

0.005 however does exist as a magnitude.


A percentile expression is not a number .

0.5% = 0.5/100 x Y(variable) = 0.005 x Y =/= 0.005.

Whatever you guys are arguing ,you are both wrong.

helinues:

The argument here is if 0.5% is equal to 0.005 in value and I totally disagree.

A percentile is a mathematical application that can be a divisor or multiplier of a given real value.

Saying 0.5% is equal in value to 0.005 is wrong as it's real value derrivative must be subjected to a real value.




That's my argument.

If you mean expressing 0.5% in another form as 0.005 you are correct but that expression can only be applied to a varriable real number .

A lot of you guys don’t read to understand and that’s why I ignored the stupid thread that was opened about this yesterday. You guys are the ones making a fool of yourself because what I wrote was very clear but as usual, bitter folks want to push a narrative that makes no sense.
