It has been 55 years since HS Math for me and I stunk at percentages.

Clark/Jordan TO%

Jordan’s 2,924 turnovers at a 9.3% rate would increase to 7,954 total turnovers at Clark’s 2024 turnover rate of 25.3%

9.3% to 25.3% = 172.04% increase in value

2,924 turnovers + 172.04% = 7,954 turnovers

First off... wrong board... LOL... JK...

second off the math is right... but it is all over the place and difficult to understand the way you represent it...

is there a conclusion you are trying to make??

Your math is correct

Weird place to ask about a... 80's/90's/00's NBA Player to Present day WNBA player(?) stat comparison, though.

more problems than that...

small sample size is never going to be a good representation of actual ratios...
