body: <p>I need some help trying to understand what seems to be very weird numbers on user engagement for firebase analytics.</p>

  <p>The above picture says that the daily user engagement is 35 seconds, however, looking at the "Top Screens/Pages" I can see average times of a least one minutes, and if I go into the page_view event details for the same period, I can see very big numbers, for example, a 13 minutes average time for a page with a total of 17%.</p>

  <p>So, how can the daily user engagement be only 35 seconds? Additionally, what is the "% total" referring to?</p>
