Im missing something important with ratios

[ceerup]

Hello all! new comer here with quite of a problem im not getting

Ok lets say i have a problem

126 divided by 123

the current ratio would be 1.02 and a bunch of numbers

now in order to get to 1.03 this calculator i have says i need a streak of 1 added to 126 which will be 127 (obviously)

so once i add that 1 to the first number (126)
My ratio is now 1.03

how do you determine how many numbers you need for a ratio to go up 0.01

lets go with a larger number for example

Lets say im playing a shooter video game and i have 90295 kills and 67238 deaths

i divide both of them and will have a 1.342916 ratio

and this calculator says i need a Kill streak of "201" to get to the desired kill death ratio (1.35)

so whats the basic formula for 2 numbers dividing and how many it will take to get your ratio up by 0.01?

1.03 * 123 = 126.69 = 127 (126 +1)

My ratio is now 1.03

and this calculator says i need a Kill streak of "201" to get to the desired kill death ratio (1.35)

1.35 * 67238 = 90771.3 = 90771 → according to my calculation you'll need (90771-90295=) 476 kills to get to 1.35 ratio.

so whats the basic formula for 2 numbers dividing and how many it will take to get your ratio up by 0.01?

thank you so much, i cant believe i didnt think of it

....

is there a way i can get the ratios rounded and get an answer like that?

for example i know that you multiply the next 0.01 ratio by your deaths, so for example 1.224 ratio, when it gets to 1.226 it rounds to 1.23? im doing coding for a calculator and i want it to go by that if you know what i mean?

I thught a good way to approach this problem might be this:

if you start with the ratio 126 to 123 you need to know how many successful attemps to reach 1.03.

If each successful attemps equals n you could write: (126 + n)/(123 + n) and set equal to 1.03 because you want to know what n is when the ratiuo reaches 1.03.

Use similar method for the second part of the problem.
