"The score, made up of audience ratings on a scale of 100, is calculated by taking the percentage of people who rated it at least 60 out of 100 (or 6 out 10) and multiplying it by 100%."

The critics score is calculated with a different formula. Do you discuss this with candidates?

Maybe research your interview questions a bit more before using them.
