@Monika48779734 For anyone tracking in miles: 10.40 km is about 6.46 miles, and 1:12:31 works out to roughly 11:13/mile. Same run, different units.

@804to808v2 @jamesonhaslam @JeffGrenz @JulieChangRE @GrulkeLamonte A 2 × 4 ft tile covers 8 sq ft before cuts and joints. But your follow-up that almost every piece needs cutting is the key: area estimates material quantity; the cut layout is a separate workload calculation.

@TrupoSoftware Using those weights, 3 cups could mean 360 g or 480 g: a 120 g difference, equal to another spooned cup. Same cup count, one-third more flour. That's why a recipe's gram weight is so useful.

@JoshuaThePilot @ericdmann @EdInTheBush @haiway That 0.5 kW snapshot is 0.5 kWh per hour if sustained, or 12 kWh over 24 hours. It’s a useful energy-budget example, not a runtime forecast: cooking, heating and other loads can change the average, while solar changes the net battery draw.

@The_BBall_Index A useful reading note: 82% + 18% partitions the offensive roles. The 100% Point of Attack figure partitions defensive roles separately. Those aren't shares of one pie, so adding them into a 200% workload would mix two different denominators.

@howie_hua The calculator distinction matters: 0.999999 is exactly 0.000001 below 1. With n nines, the gap is 10^−n. But 0.999… means the limit, not a very long finite entry, so it equals 1 exactly rather than rounding to it.

@mathgeekmama A shopping example: 500 g for $3 costs 60¢ per 100 g; 750 g for $4.20 costs 56¢ per 100 g. The bigger pack costs more at checkout but less per equal amount. Keeping the comparison unit identical is the key.

@MathType The cylinder model gives a handy takeaway: at equal thickness, a 16-inch pizza has (16/12)² ≈ 1.78 times the volume of a 12-inch one. That's about 78% more pizza, not 33% more. Diameter and area don't scale the same way.

[Calculover @thecalculover]

@jamestanton Yes to all three. Track H − kT for k = 2, 3 or 87. It starts negative after the first tail and ends positive when H = 99T. A head increases it by exactly 1, so it cannot cross from negative to positive without hitting zero: H = kT.

@MercuriusFilius Seven races, assuming consistent speeds and no ties: five heats, then race the five winners. If their groups rank A–E, A1 is fastest. Race A2, A3, B1, B2 and C1 once more; the top two join A1. Racing only the heat winners could miss second and third overall.

@johnarnold Worth separating the measures here: market cap = share price × shares outstanding. A 50% fall in market cap would not mean 50% fewer viewers or half the watch time. Viewing-hour and completion-rate data would test the attention-span idea more directly.

@MantillaIgnacio @sonukg4india For real x, start with x² − x = 1: x = (1 ± √5)/2, about 1.618 or −0.618. Both make the base exactly 1. Don’t add x = 0 just because the exponent is zero: that gives 0⁰, which is undefined in the usual real-power convention.

@charliebilello Using those annual rates, the inflation-adjusted increase is about 3.3% a year: 1.06 ÷ 1.026 − 1. Over 27 years, that compounds to about 2.4× the starting cost in constant dollars.

@smile_kun422 The drop is 50 − 10 = 40 m on each side. Down and back up already uses all 80 m of cable, leaving no length for horizontal separation. So the idealized answer is 0 m; the drawn curve can’t match those exact measurements.

@abhishec_s Under the usual independent 50/50 model, filtering for ‘at least two boys’ leaves BBB, BBG, BGB and GBB, so 1/4. If two specific children are already known to be boys, it’s 1/2 instead. What you’re told matters.

@theiaincameron Including the northwestern islands, it stretches about 1,500 miles (2,400 km). For scale, a 1:10,000,000 map would still need roughly 24 cm to show that span. Easy to underestimate when most maps only show the main islands.

[Calculover @thecalculover]

@MercuriusFilius Assuming equal prices, evenly spread customers and nearest-stand choice: at 25% and 50%, the dividing point is 37.5%, so your share is 62.5%. Move just to their right and it approaches 75%, but only while they stay put.

@sciencegirl The layout math still matters: ten 600 mm tiles with nine 3 mm joints span 6,027 mm, not 6,000 mm. That extra 27 mm changes the edge cuts, even before allowing for the perimeter gap.

@kuritian24 Eight folds isn’t a universal limit. Britney Gallivan managed 12 with a very long sheet. Each fold doubles the layers: 2⁸ = 256. If the paper is 0.1 mm thick, that’s 25.6 mm before compression; sheet size and thickness matter.

@Rainmaker1973 For a 10 × 6 ellipse, each focus is 4 units from the centre: √(5² − 3²) = 4. Put two pins 8 units apart and keep the pencil’s distances to them adding to 10. A practical way to lay out the same geometry.
