Best Answer Question?

OK, so I have a score of 23 percent at this time. However, when I look at the bar graph and the calculations below it, and I use a calculator, I come up with a different score.

462/1473=31%.

Is there something else factored in, or am I really seeing that the Best Answer calculator is off?

Thanks much!

Update:

LOL, I think I need glasses!

Update 2:

Actually, I just copied the number underneath the bar graph...it now says 1476. Am I looking at the wrong number or something. Where is that 1973 number?

Update 3:

Oh, I get it. OK, it is official, I am blonde!!!

    Well, right this second, as I'm answering this question, I just checked your stats and it says that you have 462 Best Answers out of a total of 1936 answers. Using my calculator therefore, 1936 divided by 462 yields .238636366 which rounds out to 24% which is exactly what you have. Where are you getting the 1473 number?
