Ok, seems leggit. I get that. The chart seems also to agree with that.
Next quote:
| Quote: | | Thirteen percent of smartphone owners account for more than 50 percent of all app downloads. |
I think I'm too stupid to get that. You are allowed to make fun of me now.
Here is the chart:
From this chart I read that 13% of all users download in average exactly 1 app per month.
There are also users who download exactly 2, 3, 4 apps per month or in a range of 5 to 7, and the last category are users who download 8 or more apps per month on average.
You have now the choice to explain to me why 13% of all users account for more than 50% of all downloads ...
... or simply make fun of me for being too stupid to get that.
It's YOUR choice.

it just means 13% of the overall smartphone owners are responsible for half of all app downloads. has nothing to do with the 13% in that chart though

Maybe the '5 to 7' and '8+' users, when put together, account for 50%+ of the apps downloads. Put together, they're 13% of the userbase. But the amount of apps they download could account for over half. Especially since we would only be tracking people who download app, not the 49% who don't anymore.
Or maybe we just can't use that chart, since in fact we shouldn't use one in which the 49% who don't download shouldn't be in the chart to reach the 13%. I'm not sure.

"Enlightenment is man's emergence from his self-imposed nonage. Nonage is the inability to use one's own understanding without another's guidance. This nonage is self-imposed if its cause lies not in lack of understanding but in indecision and lack of courage to use one's own mind without another's guidance. Dare to know! (Sapere aude.) "Have the courage to use your own understanding," is therefore the motto of the enlightenment."

what they basically mean is the top 13% of users (with highest download numbers)
are responsible for 50% of total downloads.
the stats are just not defined clearly enough.
and yes, the 13% on the image are from a different statistic and completely unrelated, just old.unlucky number 13 screwing with you.

Can't you tally them up? Wouldn't you get the expected number of app downloads per group of users by doing
0*0.49 + 1*0.13 + 2*0.11 + 3*0.08 + 4*0.06 = 0.83 apps for the group consisting of 49%+13%+11%+8%+6% = 87% percent of all people
For the other 13% you may go with the most conservative numbers (5 for 5-7) and 8 for 8+ and end up with
5*0.07+8*0.06 = 0.83 apps again
That would be the same amount, aka 50% at least. Make sense?

Basically this graph divides ALL users into 7 types and shows their respective relative amount. These 7 types describe how many apps a user downloads. Hence if you multiply the amount of apps with the relative amount of a respective type you get the expected number of apps downloaded by that type. If you aggregate all types into 2 groups (first 5, last 2) you can sum their expected number of downloads which gives the result above. Then the numbers check out and the graph would thus actually work as the source of their statement.

Now what? |
1. irrelevant
3. irrelevant - small changes of rgb triplets don't always yield pretty coleurs
2. Erhm. The 5 to 7 have always been one group and you can't divide them based on the graph. I merely picked 5 as the most consersative value, because we don't know the distribution within the group and thus not their actual contribution to all downloads. If we consider all to be 5 we have the lower bound.
You don't care do you?
