It should have said "...is 0.2 times longer"

[–] iAmTheTot@kbin.social 6 points 2 years ago (2 children)

No, that would be 20% longer, not five times shorter.

[–] conciselyverbose@kbin.social 8 points 2 years ago (1 children)

20% longer means 120% of the length.

Yes but how girthy is it?

[–] MostlyLazy@lemm.ee 3 points 2 years ago

Yeah, good point. May just be clear and say "It is 1/5th the length"?

[–] Squirrel@thelemmy.club 2 points 2 years ago

0.2 times as long.

[–] Ulvain@sh.itjust.works 2 points 2 years ago

0.2 times the length of*

[–] dom@lemmy.ca 1 points 2 years ago

I read that as 20% longer.. aka 120% the length.

What about "...is 0.2 times the length"
