1.5E(1-1/8 E/D) E= 0.062, D= 0.5. Have tried to use the rules of maths but get different answers, can you help please.
1.5E(1-1/8 E/D) E= 0.062, D= 0.5
Without parentheses, this is a little difficult to interpret....but....by order of operations we have
1.5 (.062) ( 1 - (1/8)(.062) / .5 ) =
.093 ( 1 - .00775 /.5 ) =
.093 ( 1 - .0155) =
.093 ( .9845)
