Figuring Out The %

Rate this question


JohnM

Question

This is off the top of my head> I'm trying to understand how the percentage actuall works

If some one could figure my example out for me

PTDD=50% of 100% = 50%

DMLL= 30% of 50% = 35%

PN= 30% of 35% =24.5 %

HL= 10% of 24.5% =22.05%

Tinnitus=10& of 22.05% =19.845 %

So would I add 50+35+24.5+22.05+19.845 together to get a precentage rate or would you add 50,30,30,10,10 together

The 19.845 would mean that is whats left of your body precentage wise

30% SC Condition #2 30 15 35.000 65

30% SC Condition #3 30 10.5 24.500 75.5

10% SC Condition #4 10 2.45 22.050 77.95

10% SC Condition #5 10 2.205 19.845 80.155

ie: sc #1 50% from 100% = 50%

sc #2 30% from 15% = 65%

sc#3 30% from 10.5% = 75.5%

sc#4 10% from 2.45% = 77.95%

sc#5 10% from 2.205% = 80.55% for a combined rating of 80%

Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe your rating should be 80%.

The first (2) 50-30 = 65

Next add the 30% = 76

Next add the 10% = 78

Next add the 10% = 80

Each 10% you receive it will increase.

Hope this helps.

I will agree with those who said the overall rating is 80%, IF THERE ARE NO BILATERAL ratings.

However, none of the individual calculations are correct, after the first two values. I guess everybody must have gone to school after New Math was introduced.

Fight the VA as if they are the enemy; for they are!
