Math Question

[Lost User]

x + (10% of x) = y x + 0.1x = y 1.1x = y x = (y/1.1) :-D - F

Let's do this first... (10% of x) = 0.1 * x = 0.1x So... x + 0.1x = y x(1 + 0.1) = y x(1.1) = y x = y/1.1 And how is this soapbox material? :)

[Joshua Quick]

Thanks for the help. I posted here because I didn't want anyone to assume this was a programming question and go on and on and on about how people aren't suppose to post programming questions in the lounge... :) Long explination for a short answer. -Richard

Ok my wife said I goofed. It was supposed to be x - (10% of x) = y Can we give it another shot please :) -Richard
