Thank you Rebbonk, I though it might be best to start a new thread for Math problems and go from here. Originally Posted by rebbonk. Many branches of that particular topic Margaret, but I used to teach some. Try me? |

Q7 he needs 7/35ths of a litre which equals 0.2l: which just happens to be 200ml Q8 [(Selling price-cost price)/cost price]*100 [(3.90-2.60)/2.60]*100...... [1.30/2.60]*100........ =50% I hope this makes some sort of sense Margaret? Edit to correct my misread figures Q8 could also be calculated by (profit/cost price)*100.... (1.30/2.60)*100 = 50% |

If I can ever help, please feel free. - I have a very 'odd' set of qualifications and experience.

He needs a total of 20 1/2 hour blocks for each job, I assume that breaks/lunch are not fixed. Attachment: The attachment margaret 2.jpg is no longer available That's how I'd work it, assuming I've understood the question properly

[ATTACH=CONFIG]242[/ATTACH] That's how I'd work it, assuming I've understood the question properly Thanks , Rebbonk. I think he says there as more to the answer, of course you are right but I don't think he explained properly all of the question. I shall pm you. |
