OpenStudy (baldymcgee6):

Exactly, so that's your first number, all the other numbers are less than 1. Are you using all the numbers, or just the ones in the first pic?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (baldymcgee6):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (baldymcgee6):

OpenStudy (baldymcgee6):

9/22 is slightly larger than 0.4
