It is simple math really, they round down instead of up. It is not that you don't have it, they just do not show it. Divide your Best Answers count by the number of answers. Do the same with your non-Best Answers by the number of answers. You will see the results. By the results you should be able to figure out how many you need to answer to get an even 100%.

It's God's cut. ;-)
Seriously, it's in the current programming that they round down both your BA% and the non-BA%.
It's been suggested to the Y!A team to fix this and they have it on the list for future changes so that can round up the BA% if it's at xx.5% or above.
Until then, enjoy the 99% total (unless you hit one on the head!).
Hope that helps!

Yahoo Answers can't add. I have 79% regular and 20% best.

Round off error.

It rounds down to the nearest percent, so most of the time you will add up to 99%. So, 2.4% plus 97.6% equals 99%.

Did you or the censors delete any answers? I think that's why my "best answers" and plain old answers don't add to 100.
