How to explain to Americans: If You remove 3 bullets out of an Gen 4 Glock 26 9mm 12-Round magazine, that’s 1/4. If you remove 4 bullets, that’s 1/3. The police can shoot one more unarmed black man with 1/3 of the magazine than 1/4.
How do you take a round… out? Is this like where I shoot in the air for holidays or gender reveal parties?
No, that’s dangerous. You shoot toward the poor end of town, not just anywhere.
No, the poor Americans will be confused by the inversion.
First removing 1/3 (4 rounds) from a 12 round magazine leaving 2/3 (8 rounds) left … then switching to talking about how a 1/3 full magazine with its 4 rounds has more rounds left than the 1/4 mag with 3 rounds.
They won’t be able to catch on, and are likely to respond with something along the lines of “But the one you took 1/3 out of has just 8 rounds left, and the 1/4 one has 9 rounds left, which is more. The 1/4 one is more.”
The cake analogy is better and still appeals to Americans because it is cake.
Since you didn’t get it, you can cut a cake visually and have it make sense where you can’t with burgers.
Cut a cake into 4 pieces, another cake into 3 pieces, the cake with 4 pieces, each piece is a 1/4 piece, the other cake for 3 and 1/3, which is bigger?
It’s easy so I’m confused why you didn’t get it.
Good pie is better than the best cake, but mediocre pies are worse than mediocre cake. A conundrum.
