Nuh..
365 divided by 270 x 100 = 77%
Sorry wrong info given. should be 270 divided by 365 x 100 = 73%
sorry Graybags -
February 11, 2004 at 10:32 #11718Graham – AdminKeymaster
Nah…
365 / 270 x 100 = 135
270 / 365 x 100 = 73
Thats using: Start> Programs> Accessories> Calculator
My guesstimate by brainpower would be near 73% ?? :crazy: -

I knew it was going to be a whacko week when (I swear.. gods honest truth) a Cuckoo appeared in our big tree by the house. He’s huge. Ma got the bird book out, seems they fly in from The Phillipines lay eggs in existing nests to be hached by the unsuspecting host.. in this case some Crows. Upon hatching the blind fletchling shoulders any other chicks out of the nest. When mature, instincts kick in and they fly home to mate.
One flew over the Cuckoo’s nest indeed. 8)
Back on Topic
I’m sticking with you Tam 73.97 or rounded to 74%
If the next song I put up is cut short you know why. lol.
Would still like to know how to use the % button??.p.s. Our Chook just hatched two Indian Runner Ducks.
But Ma did that ;) so cute, they think they’re Chooks. -

What is ear candling?. I wondered if we’re in for more blackouts.

“Ear candling or coning is a method of cleaning the ears and the mind, which allegedly alleviates a host of physical, emotional and spiritual ailments. A hollow candle is stuck into the ear and lit, allegedly sucking out earwax and negative energy. “
Thought you might be getting into some alternative spiritual healing…..

Percentages are not math. They are BS.

Topic:
It is 270 divided by 365. That gives you 0.7397260273972603. Now multiply by 100. Now your answer is 73.97260273972603. Since you want a % then round to ne nearist whole number which is 74.
Answer: 74%

Is the answer 42?
-
May 18, 2012 at 02:31 #11735Graham – AdminKeymaster
The answer is %73.97 rounded up to whole numbers %74. It’s not the answer so much but how to use the calculator % button I was asking about.

And 42 is the meaning of life….. If, the computer Deep Thought is to be believed in Douglas Adams books The Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy… So it was a rhetorical answer lol
