remember your arithmetics

9.8 * 4 = 9*4 + 0.8 * 4 = 36 + 3.2 = 39.2
etc

Remember that 9.8 is easily divisible by 7. Notice how you always divide 9.8 by 2, and it's 4.9?

4.9 divided by 7 is obviously 0.7, and so 9.8 divided by 7 is 1.4 :D

etc



10 * 4 - 0.2 * 4 = 40 - 0.8  = 39.2

i have a feeling no... unless they say leave it in the form of ag-b [10g-20] a = 10 , b= 20

in one of the trial exams MAV  2008 exam 1 they made u convert it to complete newtons. only coz it was 10g/2 - 15...



thats pretty easy yeah?

As if this is a place where people dont laugh at your ENTER.

ENTER does not determine how smart you are. so you can STFU now...thanks
also, PM ME if you have a problem. bring up a problem which CONCERNS ME only, not half of VN who also do the same action.
thanks
