    That’s the upvote ratio. You can test it with a fresh post with no votes, downvote & refresh to see the change. And then upvote and repeat.

    Upvotes ratio. Let score be S, upvotes U, downvotes D and ratio R. Then:

    R=U/(U+D) and S=U-D

    D=U/R-U and D=U-S

    U/R-U=U-S

    2U-U/R=S

    U(2-1/R)=S

    U(2R-1)/R=S

    U=SR/(2R-1)

    Your current, as of typing this comment, 83% with score of 4 means:

    U=83%*4/(2*83%-1)=332%/(166%-100%)=332/66≈5

    You got 5 upvotes and 1 downvote
