OK. Perhaps this will be more intuitive:
Take a newspaper and cut out with a scissors the headlines and keep the headlines and throw the rest away.
Look at the part you kept.
Is the fonts a different size after you cut out the headlines? No
Is there anything about the part of the newspaper you kept different than when it was a part of the newpaper? No
Is any math required to do this? No
This is analogous to a so-called "100 percent crop" in digital photography.
You are taking the original file (the whole newspaper) and arbitrarily selecting, a part of that file (the headlines) and saving it as a different file from the original.
It's a no-brainer.
