Open Question: Could someone please help me with this seemingly impossible math puzzle?

I need to know these answers by tomorrow! Help me! Keep in mind that this is a 16 square grid. The rows are labeled A, B, C, and D. The columns are labeled 1, 2, 3, and 4. You will use the numbers 1-8 (use each twice). Here are the clues. 1. C-2 contains one of the 8's. 2. Column D contains at least two odd digits. 3. Six is the larges digit in Column A. 4. C-4 contains an odd number one less thta its immediate left-hand neighbor. 5. No two identical digits are in adjacent squares (vertically, horizontally, horizontally or diagonally) 6. A-3 is twice A-2. 7. Nowhere does a 3 appear immediately below a 2. 8. Row 1 contains no ones. 9. Row 4 totals 20, row 3 doesn't total 12. 10. The sum of the digits in the four corner squares, which are all different, is 12, though none of them is a 3. 11. The two 7's are in different columns and neither is in row 2. 12. B-4 minus B-1 equals C-3. D-1 is less than or equal to A-1. I would so much appreciate it if you could give me the answers to this problem. I need a math genius. Just list the numbers in order from left to right. I made a mistake: The rows are labeled 1-4 The columns are labeled A-D more

Open Question: Why Americans are so Single?

Last year, the New York Times published the results of its census analysis stating that 51% of U.S. women live without a spouse. However, Sperling's BestPlaces discovered this might not be the whole story. "The Times came to some insightful conclusions with their analysis," said Bert Sperling, lead researcher for Sperling's BestPlaces. "We made some different assumptions to more closely reflect our national lifestyle where fifteen year-old girls aren't commonly expected to get married." The New York Times used, at that time, the latest demographics from the Census Bureau, including women above age fourteen who were unmarried or separated. Indeed, according to a University of Texas survey, the average age of women at their first marriage is 26. Sperling's firm looked at similar Census data, but restricted its analysis to single, widowed, and divorced women age 25-64. Without this cap on the age range, places with higher concentrations of elderly people would show a misleading number of single women. Sperling's conclusion is significantly different than the New York Times. In the 379 metro areas nationwide, 34% of women 25-64 are single. Despite all the attention to this new milestone for single women, the difference between the number of single men and women is not as great as one might think. Nationally, 32% of men are single. Where do the lonely hearts live? "As interesting as the nation as a whole is trending," Sperling said, "we want to see which places had the greatest percentage of single men and women." Sperling's firm broke down the data by metro area, revealing interesting patterns on where singles live. San Francisco seems to attract single people like a good pickup line, if there is such a thing. Compared to every other metro area in the U.S., the San Francisco region, which includes areas south like San Mateo and Redwood City, has the highest percentage of single people. Detroit, with 43% singles, is second only to San Francisco. New York, and Boston round out the top four. Most southern cities are not flush with single people. Those cities in southern states that have more singles are homes to colleges, where students might choose to remain after graduation, or are known for their nightlife. New Orleans, Austin, and a handful of Florida cities all have more singles than the national average. "There has to be a lot going on for singles," said David Evans in a phone interview with BestPlaces. Evans is an online dating researcher based in Boston, a city that is 39% single. Evans said Boston has the key factors for single living. "It's a college town, it has nightlife, culture, and lots of jobs." Whether by choice or circumstance, many are living in some of the biggest cities, surrounded by millions, and still find themselves alone. The Top Ten "Solo Cities:" RankMetro% Single 1San Francisco, CA44.7 2Detroit, MI44 3New York, NY39.8 4Boston, MA39.2 5New Orleans, LA39.1 6Los Angeles, CA37.7 7Fort Lauderdale, FL37.2 8Las Vegas, NV37 9Miami, FL36.9 10Albuquerque, NM36.8 Where are the couples? People tend couple up more in the smaller towns, though there are big city outliers like Edison, NJ, and Nassau-Suffolk metro area in New York. Many places that view themselves as traditional boast marriage rates above the national average. A few college cities buck the trend of having more singles. North Carolina cities, Raleigh and Charlotte--each home to a university with more than 20,000 students--are in the bottom 25% by percentage of singles. Logan, UT, and Provo, UT, both have fewer than 20% singles, the lowest in the country. Texas cities McAllen and Laredo have similarly low numbers of single people. Top Ten Least Single Cities RankMetro% Single 1McAllen, TX23 2Lake County, IL25.1 3Nassau, NY26.9 4Edison, NJ28 5Poughkeepsie, NY28 6Bakersfield, CA28.3 7El Paso, TX28.4 8Allentown, PA-NJ28.4 9Salt Lake City, UT28.5 10Oxnard, CA28.5 What about that gender gap? Bars and clubs that promote the ubiquitous "Ladies Night" might be surprised to find their city's gender gap favors the men. Since the U.S. has about 6% more single women than single men, many cities tip toward more women. Evans said many dating events take care of any imbalance by "stocking the pond," applying a quota so the number of participants of each sex are equal. Still, where there is an imbalance, the dating life is easier on one gender. Online dating companies are cluing into the gender gap. "All the sites are getting to where the ads are different in geographic areas," Evans said. When advertising on TV, the radio, or the Internet, personals websites can alter the ads based on whether the city is likely to have a dearth of one gender. An effect of this, Evans said, is that people perceive that there are plenty of fish in the sea.

Open Question: Other people's opinions? This girl I work with seems really full of her?

self. We work with 8th graders and we are both tutors, plus there's another tutor and a spec teacher in our group. We all share a study hall together, where we help kids write papers, do math, etc. All the adults share equal responsibility for all of the students. Here are 2 examples from this week: All four of us adults were in the study hall and this tutor, let's call her Miss P., directed all the students to come to her and her alone so she could look over their essays that were due that week. She wrote her name on the board and underneath it wrote "see Miss P. to check your papers". As she was helping a student at her desk, I began helping anopther student with her essay. As I was working with the girl, Miss P. asked her to come to her desk so she could check her essay. I told her the student was all set b/c I was handling it. She then asked the student if she would like her to check the paper again, even though I had already helped her with it. Later in the week I was sitting at the back table with a student helping her organize her binder. Miss P. asked us to move b/c she was going to use the table to help kids study for an exam (there is another large table in the room she could've used). I told her we would only be a few minutes and then she asked the student I was working with if she would please move so that we wouldn't get in the way of her study session. I then moved myself and the girl and she took over the table. I didn't want to argue with her in front of the kids. Do you think Miss P. is a total B*t*ch, or is she just a little controlling. What do you think? The SPED teacher that is in the group with us is "in charge" of the classroom. She never puts Miss P. in her place b/c they get a long. they both have similar personalities. I talked to the Principal breifly about Miss P. and she told me to talk about it face to face with Miss p. b/c noone lieks to be talked abotu behing their backs. i feel like talking to Miss P. will make no difference and it will make the day inthe classroom even more uncomfortable. Thanks for all your comments. I have stood up for myself and asserted myself, but sometimes it's hard to find the right way to do it with tact in front of the students. more

Open Question: I have a four month old and I started to put rice cereal in his bottle to fill him up...I know?

some people say not to do that...So i hope i'm not a bad mom for doing that..but my question is usually when i make a bottle i put some rice cereal in the bottom of the bottle and three scoops of formula (which equals 6 oz.) Once i shake the bottle up the bottle ends up being 7 onces with the cereal. So When the doctor asks how much formula is he drinking...do i say 6 oz because that's how much formula i stick in the bottle or do i say 7 ounces because thats how much the bottle ends up being once i mix it all together. Does anyone else stick rice cereal in the bottle? He is also starting solilds too.. It also seems that when i give him a plain bottle without formula he doesn't want it now...Did I spoil him by giving him rice in the bottle?? any advice is welcome..Thanks for reading. My last Line i typed i meant when i make him a bottle without rice cereal he doesn't seem to want the bottle..not without formula. more

Open Question: Math riddle/problem. Help. (read more)?

I have these math problems... or riddle and it's making me nuts. Help? Two Mathematicians walking along the street bump into each other. "I haven't seen you in so many years, did you ever marry that sweetheart of yours?" "Yes, and I have three children" replied the tall mathematician. "How old are they?" responded the shorter of the two. "Well, I will tell you this, the product of their ages is 36 and the sum of their ages equals the house number across the street." The shorter mathematician replies that he needs more information so the taller mathematician respons with "The oldest is visiting her grandmother." "Now I see how old they are." What are the ages of the three children? Explain how you got your answers. -------------- Problem 2. There are 4 men that needs to cross over a bridge. There is only one flashlight and only two can cross at one time. Tom can cross the bridge in one minute, Tim in 2 minutes, Bob in 5 minutes, and Jerry in 10 minutes. When two men walk together, they must walk at the slower pace. Clearly explain how these four men crossed the bridge in 17 minutes.

Resolved Question: Why is our government concealing the truth about illegal immigrants?

One has to be totally dumb or inane to believe only 12 to 15 million illegals are in this country. Illegals started coming in groves in the late 70's. For decades, they were uncontested. Illegal awareness took hold in the last ten years. Under the Clinton Administration, he allowed millions to become citizens without completing the proper paperwork. Each year, we are told that over four million come into the country. We are further told that 3.5 enter between California and Arizona. Do the math! Do you really think 35 years of heavy immigration equals to 12 million illegals? It is a cover up, for societies are often deceived by their governments. We pride ourselves on being an Intelligent nation, but we are just as gullible. The math does not add up! Fifteen million have entered in the last five years. Keep in mind, our own government gives us the yearly statistic. If so, why do they assume that we should buy into the lie? This new lie about illegal immigration being on the down low due to our wavering economy, is also a lie!!! NO ONE IS TALKING ABOUT WHAT PART OF TAKING CARE OF 50 MILLION ILLEGALS HAVE PROPELLED US INTO A RECESSION. I might sound far off, but welfare, SSDI, SSI, and the cost of Food Stamps have depleted us. Our govenment does not want to talk about this, for it is not politically correct for McCain and Obama. Also, it will offend the hispanic groups. Think about it, if the USA was not paying trillions of dollars to illegals would we be as bad off as we are? We would still have problems but not insurmountable ones. more

Resolved Question: Help us with some American History?

My brother is doing homework, and he asked me for help. He finished all of his homework, but he is stuck on two of the questions, and I do not know the answers. The first question is : Even though the South was all for States Rights, they came to be a downfall for the Southerners. List 3 problems states rights caused for the Confederate Government. - - - The second question is : Read the Gettysburg Address. *Four score and seven years ago our fathers brought forth on this continent, a new nation, conceived in Liberty, and dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal. Now we are engaged in a great civil war, testing whether that nation, or any nation so conceived and so dedicated, can long endure. We are met on a great battle-field of that war. We have come to dedicate a portion of that field, as a final resting place for those who here gave their lives that that nation might live. It is altogether fitting and proper that we should do this. But, in a larger sense, we can not dedicate -- we can not consecrate -- we can not hallow -- this ground. The brave men, living and dead, who struggled here, have consecrated it, far above our poor power to add or detract. The world will little note, nor long remember what we say here, but it can never forget what they did here. It is for us the living, rather, to be dedicated here to the unfinished work which they who fought here have thus far so nobly advanced. It is rather for us to be here dedicated to the great task remaining before us -- that from these honored dead we take increased devotion to that cause for which they gave the last full measure of devotion -- that we here highly resolve that these dead shall not have died in vain -- that this nation, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom -- and that government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the earth.* List American ideals that President Lincoln recalls in the Gettysburg Address.

Resolved Question: Did you know anything about SUN Meditation? ?

Sun Meditation To practice sun meditation, beginners should start by looking at the rising sun early in the morning. You can also look at the setting sun, but it is not as effective as at sunrise because the energy is decreasing. If you feel any trouble gazing directly at the sun, you should focus your gaze a short distance above the sun. Try not to blink, but if you feel discomfort, blink several times, then start again. If you do this three of four times, your resistance power will be increased and it will be easy to look at the sun. Then, we can gradually increase the time that we gaze at the sun. Beginners should start looking each day for a short period, then day by day increase the amount of time so that the eyes can gradually adapt without any harm. It is very important to maintain regular practice, as it will allow your eyes to adapt properly. Some people may experience problems in the first few days, sometimes headaches or burning sensations in the eyes, or a 'sunspot' that affects your vision. This is quite normal, and the only way to overcome these problems is to continue practising. It is similar to any physical exertion that may cause stiffness or pain; it does not last long, and it is best removed by continuing the exercise. When you can continue staring at the sun for ten minutes, the sun will seem to disappear. The inside of the sun will appear as blue sky surrounded by a ring of light, it will sometimes appear as two suns, sometimes rotating clockwise or anticlockwise. As your concentration develops and you can gaze at the sun for longer, you will be able to see a 'black spot' in the middle of the sun. Sometimes this black spot will be bigger, at other times smaller. After practice, the black spot will remained fixed in one place. Suddenly, from this black hole, seven colours will emerge and move around the sun, sometimes clockwise, sometimes anti-clockwise. As your concentration increases, a powerful beam of light will come from the sun towards your body. In the beginning this beam of light will not touch the body, it will come towards you and then retreat back to the sun. Eventually, as your concentration improves, this light will touch your body and you will attain complete thoughtless condition. This is the start of the pratyaharam stage, and indicates the beginning of Sunyoga experience. After being touched by this light, a vibration will start from the heart, allowing us to control three negativities; shame, hatred and fear. With regular practice this vibration will increase and you will be able to gain control over four more negativities; anger, greed, narrow attraction, ego & jealousy. As the vibration increases you will be able to control sexual desire and lust. At this point, the pratyaharam stage is complete. The next step, as the inner vibration increases and extends from the muladhara chakra at the base of the spine to the sahasradhara chakra at the top of the head, the sadhak will experience sahaja samadhi during which he will be able to see a bright light, inside of which there will be a beautiful structure. This is the atmadarsanam stage, the 'who am I' stage, the sadaguru stage, the mukha stage. At that time the sadhak will feel, 'I know him but i have never seen' because it has always been within... our sagunabramha structure. This marks the completion of the dhyana stage. As the inner vibration develops, we'll discover that there are two more chakras, one above the head called the ultra chakra and one below the head called the ultra balance chakra. At this point, we will be able to hear a sound, which some people call AUM, others have called AMEN, while others have called it ALAM. This is the dharana stage. At this point we can receive divine messages from the universe. The final stage is nirvikalpa samadhi, at which point a further two chakras are discovered, one above the ultra chakra called the cosmos chakra, and one below the ultra balance chakra called the cosmos balance chakra. Our mental force will be more than gravitational force, our soul will leave the body and unite with the supreme soul. The Thirteen Stages of Sunyoga: 1. Conquer all material desires (sexuality, anger, greed, narrow-mindedness, ego & jealousy, shame, hatred and fear) 2. Develop Divine Energy 3. Atma Darsanam - Discovery of Atma (or soul) 4. Samadhi - Enlightenment 5. Conquer hunger 6. Conquer thirst 7. Conquer diseases 8. Paramahansa - Adjusting the mind to all situations 9. Having no enemies - all enemies will be friends (including animals) 10. Longetivity (this happens when the body's vibration becomes the same as the environment's) 11. The body's vibration and earth's vibration will be equal 12. The body's vibration and sun's vibration will be equal 13. The body's vibration and the vibration of the Universe (Supreme Soul) vibration will be equal. i am doing sun meditation from 5 days and i feel great peace of mind and a power inside me now i see two suns revolving anti clockwise i give this information so you can also get benefit from this great meditation. did you like this pic of sun in my box? i love sun what are your views on this pic you like it or not there are some morons who are saying they will got blind stupids first read the full mattar than type something a person will got blind only if he will gaze during noon time 1 hour after sun rise and 1 hour before sun set will never harm the eyes more

ok so the assignment is to right an editorial response as a colonist in 1776 on the Declaration of Independence. ok well here's my paper give me feed back! be brutal! The Declaration of Independence John Adams, Ben Franklin, Roger Sherman, Robert Livingston, and mostly Thomas Jefferson. The delegates voted on July 2, 1776. The Declaration of Independence was adopted on July 4, 1776. There are four parts. They are Preamble-philosophy, Declaration of Natural Rights, list of grievances against King George III, and resolution for independence by USA. The ideas are self-government, freedom,representation, and equality. Personally, i agree with everything in the document except the equality. It states that all men are created equal. It does not say anything about women. Seeing as I am a women, I take that personally. I believe that every human being, male or female, black or white, should be, and have the right to be treated equally. Other than that, I feel good about the declaration. I feel that we have been wronged by Britain and deserve to be our own country. We can do a lot better on our own.we should have our own government, should be free, and should have representation in our own government. Over all, I am for the declaration and agree with most of it. ok well that's it i need help with ending that last sentence i am not comfortable with but i don't know what to put there instead. ok so its not a paper more like a short answer questin but still HEEELPPP! i am supposed to be writing this as a colonists living in that time period! so it should be have been wronged and deserve not were wronged and deserved duh didnt you read the assignment at the top!!!!!!!!

Resolved Question: Has any President done a worse job than George W. Bush?

There are really four main responsibilities: Commander in Chief. What President sent our troops into combat less prepared, or with a less feasible strategic plan? Economic steward: Has any President created such an overwhelming deficit from a previously balanced budget, or stripped market regulations and safeguards with such disastrous results? Party partisan: What President has deliberately divided the nation into opposing camps at a time when national unity was critical? Moral leader: Has any President lied as regularly about public policy goals, or used the power of his office to obstruct justice in a more blatant fashion? To be worse than Mr. Bush the President must be equal or better in three categories at least. For example, Nixon was dishonest and obstructed justice but refused to abuse the Presidential pardon to prevent John Dean from testifying, but falls short in two other categories. Buchanan allowed the country to be split rather than see his personal opponents win the White House, but he never obstructed justice. It is acceptable to be partisan in response, but be fair. This is an honest question. more

Resolved Question: New puppy and older dog ....not getting along!!?

We have a four year old female hairless chinese crested dog (Gucci). She has been the only dog in the family all this time. She plays great with our cat but has been mainly an outside dog (by her choice). In July we got a male cock er spaniel puppy (Louie). Right after we got Louie, Gucci "pulled her back" and was crate bound for 5 weeks. Vet doesn't think the puppy was related..just a pulled back muscle. Well...all this time Gucci has been inside either crate bound and the two have not had much interaction. Now that Gucci is healed...she WILL NOT stop barking at Louie. Poor Louie will just look at her and she freaks out. How can we get them to get along? We thought that getting the puppy would be a great companion....not a nuisance. Louie of course does the lame puppy stuff...ie. try to play with her, and she just snaps at him in aggression. Gucci totally would normally play with other dogs! So ...my question is...at this point in the game... 1. how can i get them to get along? 2. How can we get them to stop barking? 3. How can we get them to stop fighting? They both have been getting equal attention...Gucci has been getting more actually due to her injury.... more

(Fractions and ratios are my weak spots...) 21. 3 1/3 + 4 + 2/5 = A: 8 ¾ B: 7 2/3 C: 7 ½ D: 7 11/15 23. 4 1/5 x ¾ x 6 = A: 17 4/5 B: 16 2/3 C: 20 ½ D: 18 9/10 33. Four tenths of 18 equals: A: 6.8 B: 7 C: 7.2 D: 7.4 35. The ratio of 7:4 = (?)% A: 160% B: 67% C: 175% D: 125% and one good algebra one, because I can't remember the steps in solving it. 54. (5y2 – 4y) + (2y2 + 6y -9) = A: 6y2 +2y – 9 B: 7y2 + 2y – 9 C: 6y2 + y – 9 D: 5y2 + 2y – 9 Also, if anyone has a good math site, where I can study a bit of all of these, I would appreciate it :) Thanks-a-million! Thanks so much for taking the time to help me :) more

Resolved Question: Instead of Stampeding to Agree With Paulson's Bailout-Would It Be Smarter To Follow THIS Plan by a Candidate? ?

...For President: 1. Congress should hold a series of hearings and invite broad public comment on any proposed bailout. Congress is supposed to be a co-equal branch of our federal government. It needs to stop the stampede to give Bush a $700 billion check. Public hearings should be held to determine what alternatives might exist to the four-page proposal advanced by Treasury Secretary Henry M. Paulson. 2. Whatever is ultimately done, the bailout plan should not be insulated from judicial review. Remember there is a third co-equal branch of government - the judiciary. The judiciary does not need to review each buy-and-sell decision by the Treasury Department, but there should be some boundaries established to the Treasury Department's discretion, and judicial review is needed to ensure that unbridled discretion is not abused. 3. Sunlight is a good disinfectant. The bailout that is ultimately approved must provide for full and timely disclosure of all bailout details. This will discourage conflicts of interest and limit the potential of sweetheart deals. 4. Firms that accept government bailout monies must agree to disclose their transactions and be more honest in their accounting. They should agree to end off-the-books accounting maneuvers, for example. 5. Taxpayers must be protected by having a stake in any recovery. The bailout plan should provide opportunities for taxpayers to recoup funds that are made available to problem financial institutions or to benefit from the financial institutions' rising stock price and increased profitability after being bailed out. 6. The current so-called "regulators" cannot be trusted. The U.S. Government Accountability Office (GAO), "the investigative arm of Congress" and "the congressional watchdog," must regularly review the bailout. We cannot trust the financial "regulators," who allowed the slide into financial disaster, to manage the bailout without outside monitoring. 7. It is time to put the federal cop back on the financial services beat. Strong financial regulations and independent regulators are necessary to rebuild trust in our financial institutions and to prevent further squandering of our tax dollars. The Justice Department and the SEC also need to scrutinize the expanding mess with an eye to uncovering corporate crime and misdeeds. Major news outlets are reporting that the FBI is investigating American International Group, Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac, and Lehman Brothers. 8. Cap executive compensation and stop giving the Wall Street gamblers golden parachutes. The CEOs who have created the financial disaster should not be allowed to leave with millions in hand when so many pensioners and small shareholders are seeing their investments evaporate. The taxpayers are bailing out Wall Street so that the financial system continues to function, not to further enrich the CEOs and executives who created this mess. 9. Congress should pass the Financial Consumers' Information and Representation Act, to permit citizens to form a federally-chartered nonprofit membership organization to strengthen consumer representation in government proceedings that concern the financial services industry. As the savings and loan disasters of the 1980s and the Wall Street debacles of the last few years have demonstrated, there is an overriding need for consumers and taxpayers to have the organized means to enhance their influence on financial issues. 10. The repeal of the Glass-Steagall Act, separating traditional banks from investment banks, helped pave the way for the current disaster. It is time to re-regulate the financial sector. The current crisis is also leading to even further conglomeration and concentration in the financial sector. We must revive and apply antitrust principles, so that banking consumers can benefit from competition and taxpayers are less vulnerable to too-big-to-fail institutions, merging with each other to further concentration. 11. Congress should impose a securities and derivatives speculation tax. A tax on financial trading would slow down the churning of stocks and financial instruments, and could raise substantial monies to pay for the bailout. 12. Regulators should impose greater margin requirements, making speculators use more of their own money and diminishing reckless casino capitalism. The proposal was made by Ralph Nader, who like Green Party Candidate Cynthia McKinney and Libertarian Candidate Bob Barr are not allowed to debate by the Corporate-funded GOP/Democrat managed Commission on Presidential Debates. Only the two Wall Street Parties are allowed & with McCain suspending his campaign maybe it will be an evening with Obama? http://www.commondreams.org/view/2008/09/25-1 What really makes me sick is seeing Democrats like Shummer and Frank smiling for the cameras tonight and gloating that most are for paulson's plan of robbing the taxpayers. It is times like this that we can see there really is no "opposition" Political Party, just two Wall Street Parties. http://www.counterpunch.org/sharon09252008.html http://www.counterpunch.org/hudson09252008.html more

Resolved Question: Linear math question, word solving. Where did i go wrong?

I know how to do the substitution method, or elimination through addition, i enjoy doing these type of problems. But when i come across the word i still just can't seem to get it, well i understand but then i still make mere mistakes, here we go. Together Marissa and Shannon weigh 100kg. Four Times Marrissa's weight decreased by double Shanon's Weight equals 109kg. Determine the weight of each. Simple Let: x=Marissa y=Shannon so together they weigh 100kg x+y=100 now the second part i thought i was on the right track until i check it and i am incorrect , what i got was x=51.5 & y=51 Its wrong for the second equation i wrote 4x-2y=109 it seemed right to me! Four times means 4(x) Marissa's weight Decreased by double shannon's weight -2y equals 109 but i don't know I'm trying its new stuff for me more

Resolved Question: Please solve this physics/differential equations problem?

A 20lb weight moves in a horizontal straight line under the joint action of a constant force of 12lb in the direction of motion, and a resisting force whose magnitude in pounds is equal to four times the instantaneous velocity in feet per sec. If the body starts from rest, find its velocity and the distance traveled after 1/2 second. I don't quite understand that process. Is the velocity really that little? My first answer was .28 more
