Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Rating points are calculated as a percentage of the total population. In a city with 50,000 people, ten rating points represent 10% of the population. To have the same percentage in a city with 100,000 people, you would need twenty rating points, as 20% of 100,000 is 20,000, which is equivalent to 10% of 50,000.
