This is not a very complicated question, but need to settle a debate. This is the statement and my question.
Statement: If someone told you that 1% of the US population has a PhD. Would it then be accurate to state that 1 out of 100 people in the US has a PhD?
It doesn't matter if there's 325,000,000 people in the US or 100 people in the US. 1% is always 1%, correct?
