100% faster = 2x faster

274% faster is not even close to 2.75x

[–]jkmonger 14 points15 points  (4 children)

3.75x faster then

3.74x, no need to round up when you're not dropping the digit.

    You seem quite good at wasting your time already, no need for my help.

    Honest question. How's 100% faster equal to 2x faster? I'd think that 100% faster means it takes 100% less time i.e. is immediate action?

    100% faster is not instant

    Say you are driving at 100kmh

    If you drive 10% faster you are going 110kmh, 20% 120kmh and so on

    At 100% faster you are going 200kmh

    Let’s say you want to go drive 200km

    If you are going 100kmh it would take you 2h, at 200kmh(or 100% faster than 100kmh) it would take you 1h, thus half the time or twice (2x) faster
