Going from 8"(8*8=64) to 12"(12*12=144) yields 2.25 more chips(144/64). Why do you believe the article should have read 2.5?

Going from 8"(8*8=64) to 12"(12*12=144) yields 2.25 more chips(144/64). The actual number will most likely be even lower in the beginning of 300mm implementation since the yields will not be the same. Why do you believe the article should have read 2.5?
