Precise Mathematics

   Mathematics:

This comes from 2 math teachers with a combined total of 70 yrs. experience.
It has an indisputable mathematical logic. It also made me Laugh Out Loud.
This is a strictly mathematical viewpoint..it goes like this:

What Makes 100%?

What does it mean to give MORE than 100%?

Ever wonder about those people who say they are giving more than 100%? We have all been to those meetings where someone wants you to give over 100%.

How about achieving 103%?

What makes up 100% in life?

Here's a little mathematical formula that might help you answer these questions:

If:
A B C D E F G H I J K L M N O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z

is represented as:
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26.

Then:

H-A-R-D-W-O-R-K
8+1+18+4+23+15+18+11 = 98%

and

K-N-O-W-L-E-D-G-E
11+14+15+23+12+5+4+7+5 = 96%

But ,

A-T-T-I-T-U-D-E
1+20+20+9+20+21+4+5 = 100%

And,

B-U-L-L-S-H-I-T
2+21+12+12+19+8+9+20 = 103%

AND, look how far ass kissing will take you.

A-S-S-K-I-S-S-I-N-G
1+19+19+11+9+19+19+9+14+7 = 118%

So, one can conclude with mathematical certainty, that while Hard work and Knowledge will get you close, and Attitude will get you there, its the Bullshit and Ass Kissing that will put you over the top.

 
Now you know why some people are where they are!

It's an "Oldy but a Goody" and as well as proof that 2=1, is proof that mathematicians are weirdos.....

         Three mates each gave me $10  to buy them a bottle of rum  I got the rum on special for $25         I couldn't  divide the $5  evenly
                            so I gave each them $1 back and kept $2
   Now here is my problem     $9 x 3 = $27
                                          + my $2 = $29

            So where hell did the other $1 go ?

No, it just proves that people who want to divide things by 0 are weirdos...

if a=b, then dividing by (a-b) is the same as dividing by 0, which is undefined. Try it on your calculator and see for yourself.

Try again. :D

You are mixing cost and payment with your $9x3 and the $2. Think of it another way, that doesn't mix it up.

The shop received $30 from you and gave you $5 back to return to your mates. $30 - $5 = $25. $3 is given to your mates and you keep $2. $3 + $2 = $5 , and the other $25 that the bottlo now has gives you the total of $30. No missing dollar.
