Math is Hell

Dear Brad Japhe at Serious Eats,

It is good that you love your father. It is bad that you do not know math.

Seven is 50% of 14, therefore 7 is 50% smaller, not 100% smaller.

Fourteen is 200% of 7, therefore 14 is 100% larger.

The only number that is 100% smaller than any other (positive) number is 0.
