Math people get in here! $1.35 is one third % of what amount?

[Mayne]

Is it 409 dollars?

 

[highland145]

405

 

[nakedfrog]

Tree fiddy.

 

[Mr.IncrediblyBored]

And before Mayne's head asplodes, .0033 does not equal 1/3 of 1% (which is prob how you came to ($409). If you had done .0033333 or whatever in your calculator that would have given you a more accurate answer (about $405).

 

[DrunkenSano]

Y * (1/100) * (1/3) = 1.35
Y = 1.35 * 100 * 3
Y = 405

Simplest way is to multiply that by 3. TADA!!

[Humpy]

Metric dollars or regular American?

What the fuck did you graduate grade school OP?

math was always first class in hiighschool. You ever sleep on a broken waterbed with the temp control set to max? I didn't sleep for 2 years I think.

 

[DigDog]

You couldnt do $1.35 x 3 ???

x100 due to the % in the question

 

[Zeze]

Uhh..

You couldnt do $1.35 x 3 ???

The question was $1.35 is 1/3 of one percent.

A simple everyday answer is 1.35 x 3 x 100 = 405

To be fair, anyone over the age of 10 should be able to multiply any number by 100 as easily as they can add 2+2. But then again, anyone over the age of 10 should also be able to multiple 1.35 * 3 so there is that too...

Where does that leave Mayne?

 

[paperfist]

This isn't going to end well...

One more reason to build the northern border wall.

 

[momeNt]

Let me just say, that is a VERY SMALL tip. This is America, tip 20% or just write in the line, i'm a cheap asshole.

 

[Midwayman]

I'm curious how you'd get 409.... Not enough precision? Used .0033 for a third of a percent?

 

[Tweak155]

The ball will either be gold or silver man, just let it go.

 

[ctbaars]

No. That won't work. 409 is for removing soils that are fatty, oily or acidic. It is basic and related to ammonia and alcohol but I don't think it will do anything for your gold or silver.

What anyone should or should not be able do is very subjective. Who are YOU to tell people what they SHOULD be able to do?
