Because you are having fun with statistics is why. Poplation of Iraq is
over 16 million. Population of Washing DC is over 500,000. Ok class,
what is the percentage of 1 to 16 million and what is the percentage of
1 to 500,000. Gold star to the one who can predict which is higher.

You are a silly silly person. Take your fingers out of your ears and
stop chanting 'la la la - la la la'.
