Please help me with a math question?
Say you have two sets of numbers that average out to 89
Set A (counts 40%)
100
100
100
100
100
100
100
Set B (counts 60%):
90
70
100
64
88
Now, if you added an extra 100 to Set A, would the average 89 go up or stay the same?

Evidently not, because set A has already reached its cap percentage. You cannot get better than 100%.

It would stay the same because the average of the 40% is already 100%, so another 100 would just keep it as 100%. So your average will remain the same. Now if you added 100 to set b, your average would go up

It would stay the same, because the average of set A is already 100%.
Adding an additional 100% would make the average of set A remain at 100%, and as long as set B doesn't change, the overall average would remain constatn as well
