IS work!! :lol: I use decimals instead of fractions, having learned the decimal equivalents for eighths back in the dark ages when stock prices were given in eighths of a dollar.
oh, my goodness! 1/8 in dollars, too???? I am so fond of saying: Figures don't lie, but liars figure ... darn!
if you get the fractions/decimals small enough, you can jury rig anything! LOL <wave>
I LOVE math ... :roll: I really do! I can feel the desire to start pushing a pencil and dinking around with numbers, but I must control myself and sew something or fold laundry or something!
this is all so cool to watch the math geniuses among us strutting their stuff ... I am in awe, even if I may have to give up one of my favorites maxims of life <wave>
