Hmmm, thats interesting then.
I did a search on google for "15 percent of 3000" and it came back with 450.
I am thinking google doesn't have it wrong, but whoo knows.
When I run the script with those parameters, it equates correctly

15 * 3000 / 100 = 450 (15% of 3000)
however 15 / 3000 * 100 =  0.5

What am I missing here then if it is not percent*total/100?

Hey Jonathan,
Isn't it sum*total / 100 = percentage?
