On-screen chart: Marketshare has improved 50%. Last Year: 30%. This Year: 45%.

FTE #1: I don't think I'm a genius with numbers, but hasn't it improved by only 15 percent?

FTE #2: It's 15 percentage points which is 50 percent, and we don't think so either.

Caption: Percentages and percentage points. You'll be well served by knowing the difference.
