I assume you're talking about common core. That was designed by bureaucrats who do not understand math with the idea that the systematic approach to math was the issue, not that the people were physically unable to understand math. So the people who do not understand math redesigned the approach.

Kill yourself. And to answer your question they don't add up to 100 because they're not supposed to. Those are odds, not actual representations of betting proportions. Odds are established to drive engagement and money is made on the difference between the theoretical ideal distribution and the odds the house establishes. It's very similar to the way stock market trading houses make money, by taking advantage of the area of overlap between what they've been authorized to sell your shares for and what the buyer is willing to pay for them. They're skimming cents per hundred dollars/share but with high enough volume that adds up to a fucking lot of money. Setting enticing odds and advertising well enough (this kiked up thread) drives volume which drives revenue. Faggot.
