Oh god, another dumb one. Look at the number you put Spria.

0.354875

Anything below 5 is rounded down
5 or above is rounded up.

The 4 is before the 8, clearly saying that it will be rounded down to 0.35.

The 8 doesn't come into the equation.

You my friend are the thick one

the eight rounds up the 4 to the 5 ........ then that new 5 rouhgd up that 5 to a 6 .....

i never actually realised how stupid people on this forum were. rounding is SATS level. i hope you were all joking when you said the 8 rounds the 4 to a 5 which rounds the 5 to a 6.

Q5= 1.67x10 to power ov -8 x 85m / 4mm² X 10 power ov -6 = 0.354875, ROUNDED = 0.36ohms

Yeah, because like, the 5 rounds the 7 to an 8 (0.35488), the 8 rounds to 8 to a 9 (0.3549), the 9 rounds the 4 to a 5 (0.355), the 5 rounds the 5 to a 6 (0.36), the 6 rounds the 3 to a 4 (0.4) and the 4 rounds the 0 to a 0 (0).

:brows:

Answer = 0.
