Re-did the question, and yes, I got 72% too. Slight error in calculation. smile

@JaneFairfax; oh, you're right. I made an error in calculation... (sqrt(3)/2)^2 is 3/4.

Answers #1690 and #1698:-
Devantè, Your answer to #1698 in Post #1020 was correct. It is 0.5.
Regarding #1690, you just missed the bus! it is 20 digits! 64 x 0.3 is 19.2 and Antilog of 19.2 consists 20 digits, does't it?

Ouch... my mistake. sad

Are you sure 0.5 is the answer to 1698? I get sqrt(1-1.5) = sqrt(-0.5)

Oh ok, thanks.

I'll try to answer as many as I can tonight. smile

Whoa, I just realised that you have around 300 questions unanswered...

I'll try to answer these all but it might take some time. sad

Well, look at my threads. They're over two years old and right at the back. tongue

If you really want to, I suppose the section could be organised a little differently. Perhaps the page numbers should be ordered alphabetically, not numerically. Or perhaps a drop-down list for users to select? Or maybe an implementation in the site itself to promote the use of your exercises.

Whatever you wish, just ask. I'm sure it wasn't Ganesh's intention to draw attention away from your work.

1. Intercourse. (Yeah, why not. tongue )

3. Racquet

There's a countdown numbers game downloadable free online somewhere... gotten some really tricky ones from that. I like to pick 6 numbers from the top, makes the arithmetic somewhat harder.
