- neallindsay 4y agoIs that really what they're trying to say? Why wouldn't they say 0.47x less instead?
- bee_rider 4y agoI it looks like they had an 'online content specialist' do the blog post. My bet is that that person wasn't really involved in the research, and so decided to just pull figures directly from the document. Most likely an adequate phrasing here would be "roughly half," but if you aren't involved in generating the figures, you might be wary to about manipulating them.
