I'm working with some code that calculates point values based on computer hardware.
On one computer as an example, the computer ends up with 29 possible points.
Now lets say that I run the same code on another computer, and it tries to match hardware to the previously entered information from the computer with 29 points.
Say this computers hardware points match 7 points of the previously entered data.
Thus effectively, this computer is a ~24% match to the previously entered hardware data. (7/29)
Now, what I want to do is expand this fraction (7/29) so that the maximum amount of points is 100, but I am having trouble coming up with a formula for this that works no matter what the max points for the computer are. (Some computers can have more or less maximum points)
So basically I want to expand the fraction to x/100 from 7/29
I'm not really sure if this is possible or not, but I want to do this to allow it to be easier to understand on the surface of the software I am using, so that every computer has a maximum of 100 points based on whatever the original points are.
