13% of the population (blacks, per FBI stats) commit 50% of violent crime. But that's actually wrong. Once you adjust for sex and age, it's roughly 4% of the population (Male, blacks, ages 12-35) commit 50% of violent crime.

I don't get it.
Also the right side is not 50.
[edit] DOH my brain decided that 2/5 was 5/2. I stand corrected.
I still don't get it though. What does 13 = 50 mean?

7!=1*2*3*4*5*6*7=5040
7!/100=50.4
50.4-2/5=50

Thanks I wasn't sure how to handle that part. What is that function called with the exclamation point?

Ah now I get it. I was thinking Jews and the Holohoax.

I've never ran the numbers myself. But if I remember correctly, the stat was specifically about violent crime.

Your task is to figure out who the 13% is.
In reality it's more like 4% commits 50% of the crime.
