Forget about the 10. If you have 1 person, an extra person is twice as many people as before. 
Ok except we are talking about hacing 2 people and 1 extra making 3 is not twice as many.
Why forget the ten? These percentages apply to a real world situation. We are talking about percentages of people smoking. So it would be 20 vs 30 out of 100 or 200 vs 300 out of 1000. Not a huge difference.

You're right. It's 50% more, just like koods said.
2/1 = 2 = 100% more
3/2 = 1.5 = 50% more

You almost got it. Let's say the sample size was 100,000. Then 20% is 20,000 and 30% is 30,000. 30,000 is 50% more than 20,000 because 50% of 20,000 is 10,000 and when you add 10,000 to 20,000 you get 30,000.

2/10 people vs 3/10
Personally I'm not that impressed with the statistic, its technically significant enough to show a correlation but hardly a massive discrepancy on a smaller scale (i.e for casual observation outside of a hospital / tobacco company drawing board).
That's definitely a 50% increase though, no doubts about that.

Applied to any situation it is still 50% more. I'm sensing that you failed out of math pretty early on.

Oh, that story is 100% true. But it's only one story, so who cares.

No not at all. I was usually in the top 10 in my math classes in high school and college. I only did 1.5 years of college though and left for an opportunity to learn glassblowing. That was many many years ago and I still blow glass with no real need for mathematics. Once it was pointed out I could clearly see my error, I feel in some cases it is true that if you dont use it you lose it

This is funny, very funny. But we all do it a bit, yeah? Argue a point even after we know it's wrong, after we have been shown it's wrong. Kinda like running, you don't just stop, you slow down to a walk then stop

I have no respect for someone who practices bad hygiene.
Being poor is not an acceptable excuse. I've been dirt-floor poor for half my life, but by-god I was clean! That's because I had parents who gave half-a-fuck!
It all comes down to laziness.
Same goes for fat people.

Kind of feel the same and shit I don't smell too rank even living on the road. You have to really go out of your way to develop chronic stink ass

My point was that there is not a huge difference in the amount of rich vs poor smokers, a point which I still stand behind

And our point is, that when you are talking about demographics, 50% higher rate of anything is VERY significant.
