I'm not sure I understand, but I'll check out the link you shared. Thank you.
I just tried the suggestion in the link you posted and it still didn't work properly. I wrote out a form rule for each specific scenario like instructed, and I was still having the same issue.
I tried keeping the Ownership Percentages section visible and all of the percentage fields visible and then hiding the ones I didn't need to show depending on what was selected in the Type of Ownership field but the same situation kept happening with the Ownership Percentage 3 field showing up.
I tried keeping it visible and then hiding what wasn't needed depending on what was chosen, and that didn't work.
I tried the inverse and keeping it hidden and only showing what was needed depending on what was chosen and that didn't work.
I even stripped out the change values part of the formulas just to simplify things and that still didn't work.
Not sure what to do now.

You said in your latest post that you wrote a formal for every scenario. That is opposite of what you need to do. You need to write a form rule for every form element that you want to control.
so your first rule, for example, might be to control when ownership percentage 1 shows
Then the second rule would be for when ownership percentage 2 shows
