Well, apparently not simple enough. 230,000/3,900,000= 5.9%
Read a little more carefully. The math is correct. And simple. Only 430,000 could have served. Are you going to give the 3 percenters credit for not being female? Or not being children?
There is no conceivable scenario in which the 3 percent number is actually meaningfully true. It is simply made-up. Or, if you prefer, a lie.
