Problem: We have x checkboxes and we want to check y of them evenly.
Example 1: select 50 checkboxes of 100 total.
[-]
[x]
[-]
[x]
...
Example 2: select 33 checkboxes of 100 total.
[-]
[-]
[x]
[-]
[-]
[x]
...
Example 3: select 66 checkboxes of 100 total:
[-]
[x]
[x]
[-]
[x]
[x]
...
But we're having trouble to come up with a formula to check them in code, especially once you go 11/111 or something similar. Anyone has an idea?
