Currently the labeling within the figure is wrong and should be changed accordingly: The left cube has the size 5*5*4 = 100 which is 1‱ (base point) of the big ppm cube. The middle cube has the size 10*10*10 = 1000 which is correctly 1‰ (per mille). The right cube has the size 20*20*25 = 10000 which is 1% (percent). — Preceding unsigned comment was added by 141.53.100.150 (talk) 12:19, 8 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Each fraction is the proportion of the red cube to its respective block, rather than the proportion of each block to the biggest block. I thought of making all the blocks the same size and instead vary the amount of red, but that would make the graphic significantly larger. Can you think of a better solution?
