Hmm, relatively speaking, I don't think it'll matter then. Simple analysis would dictate that each average would just have a constant factor added, which means the order is the same. That is, for A/f > B/f > C/f implies A/f+c/f > B/f+c/f > C/f+c/f. By the way, I don't understand how you can get 100%. It shouldn't even be possible if you're using bayes...
