But what if the generated number isn't achievable. Surely being 1 out should get you 10 points as it's the best you can do ? Only asking this dull question as the scenario just came up on 8 out of 10 cats and the flaw was bugging me. I'd say it's only once in a blue moon it's not actually possible. Except when some p***k chooses 4 big numbers. You could argue the same for the letters round. You get 18 points for a 9 letter word, but only 8 points for an 8 letter word - and often a 9 letter word isn't available. Oh, and re: numbers round.

Hedgecutter Posted May 8, 2017 Share Posted May 8, 2017 Despite (somehow) having an A in Higher Maths, I can't even solve the most basic of equations anymore (classic case of 'use it or lose it'). If I have the equation (100*a) / (a+b) = c then how can I rearrange this to repeatedly calculate a if I know both b & c? Really complex stuff, I know. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ranaldo Bairn Posted May 8, 2017 Share Posted May 8, 2017 100a/(a+b) = c 100a = (a+b)c 100a = ac + bc 100a - ac = bc a(100-c) = bc a = bc/(100-c) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

welshbairn Posted May 8, 2017 Share Posted May 8, 2017 Is it just me that's absolutely lost with all that maths shite up there? I used to be quite confident about that stuff, it was calculus that fried my brain and made me give up on maths. "approaching infinity", wtf does that mean? Basic arithmetic is my limit now, and a struggle without a calculator. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cardinal Richelieu Posted May 9, 2017 Share Posted May 9, 2017 Last time I looked at GCSE Maths and Chemistry exam papers they might as well have been written in Swahili for the amount I understood of them. How can I remember so little of them whereas stuff like French pretty much stays with you? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know you're (a lot) younger than me. I did SCSE Maths at Higher (in 1976) but my big yin did GCSE Maths 2 years ago and my middle one will sit it next week. When I read the past papers to help me eldest I was initially baffled except for some of the algebra questions. I spent 3 evenings using Youtube as a resource and it's not actually that hard. She went from a predicted E to scraping a C. I was proud as f**k! Edited May 9, 2017 by The_Kincardine 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
8MileBU Posted May 9, 2017 Share Posted May 9, 2017 So, where's Tony [mention=46541]8MileBU[/mention] ? He was in Nottingham yesterday. Not sure about today. I'll tell him you're asking for him though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
