Why are you calculating the gain out of 46% and not out of 100%? It clearly doesn't talk about the gain of a percent of a percentage.

- chairmanwow 9y agoPercentage changes are a scaling factor against the previous number. 1-(new/old) is how it should be calculated. So even though they are comparing two percentages, they can't directly subtract them (new - old). Percentages describe _relative_ change.
