You have verified nothing.

Maybe this explanation from Wikipedia will help:

It is not correct to divide by 100 and use the percent sign at the same time. (E.g. 25% = 25/100 = 0.25, not 25%/100, which actually is ?25/100/100 = 0.0025.


In terms of the original post that stated a .07% position, 7%=7/100=.07, .07%=7%/100=.0007 which means .07% of 3 billion =2.1 million.
