We can imagine natural numbers as whole objects, things our
hunter-gatherer brains can work with. On the other hand,
partial numbers ― decimals, fractions, percentages, and ratios
― simply don’t register as real to our minds. We may be able to
work with them for a given time when we’re in math mode, but
if we’re asked questions at other times, we tend to have trouble
grasping the concept. In other words, any time we give our
audience figures that aren’t natural numbers, the message is
unlikely to make sense to them. Not only are they prone to
make errors remembering and calculating the numbers, but
there’s a good chance they never even envision what we’re
describing in the first place ― because the number attached
isn’t solid. Use natural numbers whenever you can to make your
message real. For numbers less than 1, you can use a strategy
to make things start to show up as natural numbers. If you find
that 0.2% of people have a certain trait, using “1 out of 500”
makes this abstract percentage into a real thing.
