[edit] Figures

I am confused here:

• 83% of the mountains are in Bulgaria, so 100%-83%=17% is in Greece.
• 66% of the mountains form the Western part and 34% form the Eastern part. 66%+34%=100%
• 17% of the mountains form the Southern=Greek part. So 66%+33%+17%=117% ?!
• So the Southern part does not exist, because it's artificial and the Greek part lies partly in the Western part and partly in the Eastern part or the term "total area" actual means "total Bulgarian area"

Can someone please give me the right answers?!! I believe the number 83%, but the rest of the figures unfortunaly not. Jeroenvrp 21:10, 2 October 2006 (UTC)

Well, the 83% in Bulgaria are subdivided into a western (66% of 83%) and eastern part (34% of 83%), while Greece has a southern part of the mountains (17% of 100%). So yes, indeed, 66% and 34% are of the Bulgarian area. My mistake ;) Todor→Bozhinov 11:37, 3 October 2006 (UTC)
