My engineering brain says it’s 3.25.
4% is ~ 5%. 10% of 75 is 7.5. To get the 5% I have to divide it by 2, so 4% of 75 is close to 3.25. I will have to multiply it with some safety coefficient at the end, so the exact value doesn’t matter.
Mine brain just does 0.75 × 4.
Thought process was…
- Get 1% = 0.75
- Double it = 1.5
- Double it = 3
0.04 x 75 == 0.75 x 4 == 75 x 4 x 0.01
switch the order of the last two terms (the second equality), put the 0.01 in the middle, and it makes a bit more sense when read as calculation steps.
0.04 * 75 = 4 * 0.01 * 75 = 4 * 0.75That’s fair. I intended them to just be a list of equalities
