This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

I'm not trying to be rude here, but the math is not my problem, I understand dimensional analysis.

After doing that calculation, is it likely that you are going to mistake the term "percent" and "mg", or after doing something so specific with units are you more likely to use the right one?

I'm saying that if OP actually did any of this (you say their math is on point but they didn't do any haha) they'd probably be using the correct term rather than the incorrect yet common "street" term

The point of my math is that it doesn't matter if it's mg or percent. Assuming the bottles remain consistent, the difference for each step will be the same volume.
