Here is a Question if anybody knows the answer .It is illegal to put a surcharge on a EUROPEAN CREDIT CARD but if the UK leave tomorrow can we add 5% service charge to UK issued cards ?
-
Yes.
-
How do you add or even calculate the 5%?

How do you add or even calculate the 5%?
If the fare is 14.80 T, you divide by 100 to get 1%, then multiply that by 5 to get 5%, then add that on to the original 14.80 or 14.80 plus 74cent equals 15.54.

Or just add an extra euro or two
-
Or 14.80 ÷ 100 × 105 will give the same answer T.

You could do that T, probably easier

? :(
-
14.80 ÷ 100 is 0.148. 0.148 × 105 = 15.54.

Where did you get the 105 from?
-
105% T
-
Or the original 100% + 5% = 105% T.
-
Ah fuck all that brain work, i just let me cabapp tell me what the charge is.. Just double what the 2.7% charge is
-
But that would be 5.4% T which means you would be stealing.

Told you i was no good at maths lol

Anto economics for dummies .!0% of any number just remove the last digit ie 1000 10% is 100 half that 50 add that on 1050 .
-
The easy way for me to do it mentally would be to divide the fare by 10 then divide the answer by two.And add it on.
14.40 divided by 10 is 144.
144 divided by 2 is 72.
14.40+72= 15.12
No need for a calculator.

So how do you divide by 10? just remove the last digit !

Calculators in the safety kit next :-\

Where's marto when you need him?
-
Move the decimal point one place to the left for every zero in the dividing number.(10)
I edited my other post.That's the way we learned it in school.

Also you can use your Google assistant to do it verbally if you're not comfortable.

Not quite Ll I got an A in higher level on me junior but got complacent in the leaving and sat the ordinary level...cant remember what grade but I passed.Would fail them all tomorrow after letting me brain rot with drink for so long.
To be honest this stuff is more fifth class in Primary school.But a good teacher is the difference between As and Ds.

Ask? Ya mean type into the clever phone
-
No Tony use the voice assistant.Get someone younger to show you.If you hold down the home button on Android you can speak to the phone and it performs basic functions.
Stuff like
Hey google navigate me to the nearest petrol station/Airport/hospital.
Hey google call my wife....
Loads of other stuff too.I only use it when I can't pull over to type safely.
Hey Google open SuMUp app
Etc etc.

If you know how to use it cameras and lights around the gaff can be controlled.If you have them.
I can turn off me Nest thermostat from the other side of the city using voice control.Completly pointless but you can do it.
The most common one I use is...
Hey google when is it gonna rain next.
Invaluable information for a house husband.

I'd say the only cameras and lights Tony has are inside the gaff.....and the only word he utters is "action!!"
