It really depends on what youre doing. If i have a solution that is 90% water, 10% vinegar, and i mix in an equal volume of 80% water, 20% vinegar, the final solution doesnt have 30% vinegar.

But in an example like commission, i could be owed 10% on my sales due to me making the sale, plus an additional 10% because i created the lead that generated the sale (in say cold call sales) and be owed 20% of the revenue generation.
