"420% of his body weight Where's your working out? " 900 is 420% of 214 | |||

"420% of his body weight Where's your working out? 900 is 420% of 214 " The question is how much more as a percentage. So, wouldn't it be 686 as a percentage of 214? | |||

"Great answers everyone! I've got your brains a'ticking Ok, so firstly you need to convert John's weight into pounds. Next, find the percentage of his weight against the 900 pounds he was attempting to lift. Now deduct John's weight percentage from the said figure and the answer (as a percentage) is whatever remains.....I think.... " So what’s your answer | |||

So what’s your answer " I make it about 320% because 686 is 320% more than 214. I could very well be wrong though; I haven't done maths like this since I was 14. | |||

I can't remember the formula for working out that particular %age. Something to do with dividing (d)then times by 100 before timesing both sides by d. Probably totally wrong | |||

"Scientific studies have shown that the regular practice of arithmetics (no, not on a calculator!) can help keep the brain healthy, so being the good altruist that I am, I have been kind enough to devise the following test for you all (don't all thank me at once).... John is busy pumping iron in the gym when in a highly injudicious flight of fancy, decides to attempt a 900 pound deadlift. Unfortunately, as a direct result of this ill conceived stunt, John suffers a full rectal prolapse and additionally shits himself. Whilst subsequently waiting for the ambulance to arrive, John muses that as he weighs in at 15 stone 4 pounds, had he have succeeded at his lift, he would have picked up a gargantuan deal more than his own body weight... What exact percentage more would John have succeeded by? " See my maths is so bad that I read that as “ten pink elephants jumped over a bridge and the purple monkey slung poo at them Ms B | |||
