Snails - Response on Threads Part 8

[daleron]

Good morning, dale, Bear, Pepper and mm

Good morning Fran

out of luck getting a few more winks but we always can hope for a nap later on!

Oddly enough I did lay back down and think I may have slept about 30 minutes ... my neck glands are swollen and sore.

If somebody cannot math, do you tell them?

Would you feel it's your responsibility? Or would you leave
it up to somebody else?

Spoiler: Check Me

isn't $200,000,000,000 / 7,500,000,000 = $26.66 ???
Or is it still too early in the day and I have not had enough coffee?

I beg you to correct me if I am wrong, please.

Good morning Bear
I was terrible at math.

If somebody did not math properly, do you tell them?

Would you feel it's your responsibility? Or would you leave
it up to somebody else?

depends on the context and consequences for example - if they worked out how much of a refund they were entitled to and made a mistake i'd correct it. if it's some social media exercise probably not. people who don't remember the order of operations are usually beyond hope

The resulting conclusion was degrees of magnitude wrong. Like, $26.66 versus
$1,000,000,000. And garnered likes, agrees, and a "head explosion" by the Fan
Club. I'll let somebody else point out the error. Once ( , LOL @ "once" ) burned,
twice shy. It would just deflect back on me for being "that person".

What does 200/7.5 equal, to YOU? No "order of operation" detail here.

EDIT: And 3 "winner" responses.

26 & 2/3rds.

Wait, is this a "story problem" and they got the variables wrong? Happens all the time...

 

[SilverBear]

My moral compass is spinning like a gyroscope. And doing all
kinds of weird motions off into space.

At one time, it's saying "forget it"... but it's also saying to call it out.

Pondering.

No, the variables are fine. ROUNDED, but fine. I'm not difficult
(anymore). But the number after the equal sign is stultifyingly
wrong.

The numbers pretty much stated as "fact".

Nobody else caught it ... or ... no stones to mention it.

Do you want to field this? Consider it a gift.

But with the latest numbers (per Google), it's still only $34.63. Not
anywhere near $1,000,000,000.

 

[SilverBear]

Meh... what the hell. This is only an online forum no matter how one spins it.

EDIT: Dirty Deed Done (Dirt Cheap). Now, watch.



PREDICTION: Deflection. Me = "That Person".

amazing how those zeros can mess up people

if you want to give 1 billion to 7.5 billion people then you 1 billion times 7.5 billion
