my maths proficiency :D


WELL i now write my second mokkai post!!:P this one is 4 u 'V'.. hehehe..;o)
this post is about my proficiency & efficiency in mathematics-- "mental" maths-- inda'+-x/' iruke adu dan.. hehe..

actually me n my bestestest fren 'V' wre talking abt his 'n'th number of time watching the F.R.I.E.N.D.S. serial(all seasons)..(n=5 til 10th of jan'09)..

now coming to the math part---

I asked him how many days he has totally wasted watching that serial..He said,"There are totally 238 episodes of F.R.I.E.N.D.S.(mega serial range ku irkku iila :P) each episode around 23 minutes.." and asked me to do the math part...
I rounded 238 to 250 and 23 mins to 25
mathematically,
238 ~ 250
23 ~ 25
------- ------

and concluded 250X25 = 6250mins
rounding 6250 ~ 6000 mins (approx.)
6000/60 = 100 hrs

100 ~ 96 hrs

96/24 = 4 days

and his n being 5.. (as given in the problem statement n=5)

4X5=20 days... he was abt to start his 6th round

so i approximated 20 days to 25 days

20days ~ 25days

I added 5 more days(4 sundays and a second saturday (govt holidays..:P))

so, 25+5 = 30 days = 1 month folly :-O

and told him tat he has wasted 1 full month waching F.R.I.E.N.D.S.

His calculator mind worked out math and he said there is one "LITTLE" FLAW..

He said,"one little flaw
you Increased 12 episodes already
and added 5 days to the result
so your answer is WRONG
it is 19 days to be exact"
now lets do the paper work(calculations--)
238 X 23 = 5474mins
5474/60 = 91.2333 hours
91.2333/24 = 3.801 days
n=5
3.801X5 = 19.00694444444444 days totally

Hey 'V' sharp brain da onaku :-)
He said,"19 is calculator math, fine. but 19 approximated to 30 is not fine at all, in fact it is the opposite of that"[ total damage a pochu :-( lol :P ]...

avlo dan story... i kno u mite hv got irritated reading this post.. fine thanks for wasting the time :D... n if any one feels lik using bad words @ me,, u may very wel do tat-- cos i dedicate this post and its comments 2 'V' as he gave me this dreadful idea of writing this dumbest thing in my beautiful blog :D..
