Scale Calculation Question

[John Howling Mouse]

I have an objective to turn a 1:72 subject into an aircraft manned by a 1:48 scale pilot figure.

I believe that is a scale percentage change of about 66%, right?

Would turning a 1:48 subject into an aircraft manned by a 1:32 scale pilot figure be the same jump in relative scale percentage (I think it is also about 66%) and therefore not represent any difference in the scale jump?

This is REALLY, REALLY simple:  

48/72 = .66666

32/48 = .66666

Not "about" anything.  Exactly, precisely 66.6666%

I'd show you my page of calculations but I'm too embarrassed now.
