I don’t even know if the question is well written but this is my doubt: sometimes (in the area of medicine in my case) you can read numbers like “between 30 and 80 percent of the patients have a relapse”.
Isn’t a percentage an average per se?
If I do an experiment with 100 people, shouldn’t I have an exact percentage of people who react in certain way? How can’t I know if they are 30 or 80?

Because if you rely on one study it is not a finding. It might be a trend, but it is not a finding.
Many experiments need to be conducted over many different conditions to find a trend, let alone a finding.
