um...the difference between the two rates is 14.2-13.74=0.46/day

Diffrence to bridge is 2000-1596=404

Therefore the number of days required to catch up=404/ 0.46=878 days

conclusion:

1 You are going to have to get a move on Davo

2 I have too much time hanging on my hands (I have had a couple of days rec leave!)

3 it reminds me of the old Achilles and the tortoise paradox

umm, i have a B App Sc (Hons) in maths and physics, and a Diploma of Education.


The point of pointing this out is that "I was only trying to test you all"

Physicists and Teachers are never wrong!!!!


......socks off, each toe is worth 1 hundred, so four toes and 4 fingers, if is were to break them up into .4 groups, how many lollies will i have???

Where's my 5 year daughter when i need her????

Hmmm, once upon a time I was the second on the list. A brief hiatus changed all that. Now I am way down the list. Still have a fairly respectable total and trying to make my posts valued.

Congrats on making 2000 asimov and now all you need to do is slow down and walk along.

wow - I've just gone up 4 places with this post alone. I'm clearly a much more efficient poster than any of you novices!
