20% is 1/5 of 100%, which means that we must add 1/5 of the $55 to $55. 55/5 is 11, and 55 plus 11 is 66, which means that the new price is $66.

1/2 times 8/1 is 4, and 4 times 58 is 232.

Good thought. I should have done that. Thanks, CPhill. 

Pi? 9+10=Pi?

You can easily access the calculator on the page and use it by clicking on the "Home" tab or the page logo on the top of the page.

5^6,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 might not be available, but you can try it.

3 and 1/4 would become 13/4 since 3 times the denominator, 4, is 12, and that plus the current numerator, 1, is 13, becoming the new numerator.

Converting 1/2 into 4ths is 2/4, and 13-2 (the numerators of the numbers) is 11. That means that 3 and 1/4 minus 1/2 is 11/4, or 2 3/4.

1/2 times 1/2 is 1/4.

1/4 times 1/2 is 1/8.

1/8 times 1/2 is 1/16.

1/16 times 1/2 is 1/32.

1/32 times 1/2 is 1/64.

Therefore 1/2 times 1/2 times 1/2 times 1/2 times 1/2 times 1/2 is 1/64.

FInd the LCD (Least Common Denominator) of all of the numbers, or a number that all of them are a multiple of. In this case, it would be 270. Then multiply the numerators by the number the denominators were multiplied by to get 270.

1/2: 2*135=270, and multiplying 135 by the numerator, 1, is 135, so it would be changed to 135/270

8/9: 9*30=270, and multiplying 30 by the numerator, 8, is 240, so it would be changed to 240/270

10/15: 15*18=270, and multiplying 18 by the numerator, 10, is 180, so it would be changed to 180/270

Adding 135/270, 240/270, and 180/270 is 555/270, which would reduce to 2 1/18.

That means that the answer is 2 1/18.

Math is everywhere. If you want to be an architect, you need to know the area of a building. You needs counting skills to work in a bank and algebra in shopping. Math can be applied to many things if you look for them.

What a coincidence!
