Can you post a picture of what the scale shows? Sometimes they get hooked up backwards and then they get a little goofy. The reading should be to the right side of the scale. The first batch of numbers are in the tenths range and divided into ten hundredths. If you are in the first few lines on the right side of the scale, you got it right.
