Payout screen on groups doesn't take decimal places for the percentage marker

On the Configure Group > Revenue > Payouts screen, the percentage input labels only take full numbers, not decimal places:

This makes it hard to pay out to 3, 6 or more devs where the splits don’t result in rounded percentages.

I should be able to easily split among 3 people on this screen without needing to round the percentages.

You can’t pay people have a robux that does not make sense you’re going to have to give 1 person 1 more % or something. It makes sense for robux not to be split in half because imagine if the penny was split in half. How that wouldn’t make sense now would it? And also robux has always been this way it is not possible to use half of 1 robux.

This is about percentage payouts, not Robux payouts. Read posts properly before replying. I’m not asking for Robux to be paid out in decimal places.

If I have 360,000R$ in my group and I set 33.33%, 33.33%, 33.33% I expect this screen to figure out that I want to pay 120,000R$ to each recipient.

While I see how it forces a decimal place with the math if the developers were to take 100% of the earnings; I failed to understand why not just split it without a decimal place? You can take the remaining balance at your own leisure say for example every quarter. Then split it up there and repeat?

If Roblox’s ability to only allow for whole numbers I fail to see how this would happen without shrinking or expanding the percent available. This would mean the only other way would be to add decimals which I think is a bad idea and rather should be up to the finance person.

Furthermore I personally never deal with this problem myself and I’m sure many other developers do because some jobs (ex) Programmer require more skill and their pay/percent reflects that. Not to mention I usually pay out the developers based on an available percent while the rest is reallocated back into the project.

I could be wrong but these are my thoughts and I personally don’t see an need because it would allow for more problems than the one solution.
