    Apparently you have no idea either. 60dB is almost double from 55dB, not 5x. If you account for ear perception it’s close to 1.5x.

      I have updated my comment, with correct data, you are still wrong, but less wrong. As 60dB is about 3 times louder than 55dB.

      I am sorry for the confusion.
