                      Is that cheating? I don't recall seeing any text about you having to do it all in the head (there should be plenty of room there, mind you) :confused:

                          Is for me - when I left school and went to Uni, I didn't even own a calculator! (I did own two slide rules though, and I think I still have both of them) :laugh:

                                10/10, as usual with these types of questions, the maths is fairly easy. It is reading and understanding the question that tends to trip folk up because they rush, then apply the wrong logic.

                                  I answered the second choice in every question. I scored 30%.
