Hunt across trades and disciplines for measurements built as a part of a whole, such as risk estimates, survey findings, uptake levels or attainment. Any named quantity whose conventional notation is the percent sign qualifies, from technical ratios to everyday statistics; absolute counts, proportions written as fractions and measures in other units do not.

How to approach it

Sweep disciplines one at a time instead of chasing synonyms for the clue in brackets, since breadth is what pays. The productive question is which standard figure in a given trade is habitually written with a percent sign and not as a fraction, a decimal or a count. Money, clinical research, sports analytics, farming, factory quality and social surveys each hold long tails of such measures, and the tail is where the points sit. Inside a chosen field, drill from the obvious headline number down to the specialist variants that practitioners quote and outsiders never mention. Jot candidates in bulk before judging them: the middle band is crowded, and only unusual entries lift a solid list into a great one.

Get a hint

Begin with the professional vocabularies, because money, clinical research, engineering and sports analytics each keep a stock of figures quoted with a percent sign rather than as a plain fraction.

A little more

Then turn to social and household statistics, where coverage, participation, uptake and completion are almost always given as a share of a clearly defined population.

One step further

Finally probe narrow technical corners, where one specialised ratio, loss or content figure is second nature inside a trade and practically unknown beyond it.

Why these answers count

Points fall as more players choose the same entry, so the reveal reads as a map of consensus rather than a test of knowledge. Broad, instantly reachable measures sit at the bottom of the top band: 300 recorded answers earned 60 points, meaning plenty of people converged on the same handful of headline figures. A vast middle tier of 1836 answers earned 85, and that list shows what separates it from the floor: precision inside a field rather than celebrity. Entries such as a mutual fund distribution charge (12b-1 fee, 85), a short-term euro area lending benchmark (€STR, 85) or a post-procedure death rate (30-day mortality, 85) are professional terms rather than general knowledge, yet still familiar enough to be shared by a few players. Abandonment rate (85) lands in the same tier for the same reason. The lone 100-point entry, Albedo, was matched by nobody else, which is the lesson: the summit belongs to one narrow technical reading of the prompt that no rival tried.
