what about between 49 and 50%? where does that lie in this question?

I think the percentages need to be edited, since a total of 3% are left out of consideration entirely: 44.01-44.99%, 49.01-49.99%, 54.01-54.99%.

I would suggest, just to make it easy, have it be:
55% or more
50-54.99%
45-49.99%
44.99% or less
