no. you might have only needed that 1 percent extra to get you over that next hurdle. you never fail at the very bottom of a chin up, and once you get past a certain point in the motion it gets easier, so it might be that 1 per cent strength gain (or more likely, that few grams less body weight due to when you last ate/drank/pissed) gets you past the point where the motion becomes easier, where you had enough strength to complete that part yesterday, but you didn't have the strength to get to that part.
"Less weak"... mioW! I know a climber who, at the time when they had climbed 8b, said they could only do 6 chin-ups... admittedly their finger strength and endurance was utterly ridiculous
If you want a sensible(ish) answer use this https://www.exrx.net/Calculators/OneRepMax for an approximation of your 1RM. Use your bodyweight. Ideas of increase in "strength" in low rep ranges are usually pretty well indicated by projected one rep maxes.
If 4 is really your max and you want to improve quickly.... don't do 4s or 3s every day... do 2s, with an hour between sets, MANY times in the day. Revisit those numbers each week. It will go up by 1 or 2 reps per set per week at least. If you stick to it I guarantee you will be cranking consistent sets of ten within 6 weeks.
25% stronger would mean doing those same 3 pull ups but with 25% more weight. That is 25% of your body weight. So if you weigh 70kg then you'd be adding 17.5kg. That'll be considerably harder than simply adding a rep or even half a dozen reps to your set.
However adding a rep, especially in the low rep range, is still a good improvement. Keep it up. You could start adding weight when you get in the 10-12 rep range.
You'll always be rounding down when it comes to reps. It could be that you had the strength to do 3.9 pull-ups, which meant you only managed 3 full pull-ups. So 3.9 to 4 is very little increase. It depends how far off 4 you were the first time. Tiredness/fatigue will also play a part. I can often manage more reps after a short break from training in order to recover.
