Hello I have this 

set topReport to do shell script "top -n1 -l1"

set totalUsage to get word 29 of topReport


set totalUsage2 to 100 - totalUsage


and I see this 
error "No es posible convertir \"50.0\" en tipo number." number -1700 from "50.0" to number

not possible to convert 50.0 in type number


but it's already a number, I also tried to suffix "as number" in the set totalUsage line, but won't work. If I try manually set totalUsage2 to 100 - 50.2 it works

why?
