Is this a correct way of thinking

-That will be true only if the the holes volume is inversely proportional to the cheeses volume.-The more cheese you have, the more cheese is taken away. But the percentage is the same.......
I got it from a picture which probably is related to 4chan or whatever.

The more holes in a swiss cheese, the less cheese you have, right? The more cheese you have, the more holes there are bound to be. Conclusively, the more cheese you have, the less cheese you have,

-
No, because while you're adding holes you're also adding cheese. The conclusion you arrived at is assuming your adding holes but neglecting the fact that you're adding cheese too. In order to decrease your cheese you'd need to add even holes to 1) take away all the new incoming cheese (so you're adding a piece of air) and 2) add more holes to the original cheese.

-
That will be true only if the the holes' volume is inversely proportional to the cheese's volume.

The more cheese you have, the more cheese is taken away. But the percentage is the same.
