	Pre tax and post tax percentages		2018-05-22
		Tom pose la question : Hi, I work in a clothes shop which can also do mail-orders. My Head Office has sent a report with which we can check the records we keep in store tally with those at HO. According to that report we have taken £2578.25 in orders, excluding VAT (20%), which would therefore be £3093.91 including VAT (2578.25+20%=3093.91). According to my records, we have taken £3179.32 including VAT, which would be £2543.45 excluding VAT (3179.32-20%=2543.45). Why is it that the difference between the VAT inclusive figures (3179.32-3093.91) is +£85.41, but the difference between the VAT exclusive figures (2543.45-2578.26) is -£34.81? Now, I can see from the report that 1 order has not been recorded by HO, and I know that our average order value is around £30, so the -£34.81 makes sense. But surely both figures should be a minus, regardless of whether they include VAT? I'm sure there is an obvious answer, but I just cannot see it! Any help would be gratefully received. Thanks, Tom Penny Nom lui répond.

As part of the data, he must provide the maximum percent difference observed in the categories his team has identified. So, for example he has six plants with four measurements each. (He has more, but I'll keep it simple) For the first plant he measured 2mm, 2.4mm, 2.9mm, and 3.2mm. For the 2nd, 3rd, and 4th plants, he has similar numbers. Is there a way to calculate the maximum percent difference between any two plants in his measurements during the project? Doing it for each combination would be tedious. Penny Nom lui répond.

		Tedd pose la question : Can you give me the formulas for calculating percentage differences between two numbers? For example: if the first number is 10 and the second number is 15, then the second number is 50% larger than the first number. However, the formula to calculate that percentage won't work if the first number is greater than the second number as in the following example: The first number is 15 and the second number is 10, with the second number being 33.3% less than the first number. Or maybe I'm mistaken and the same formula will work in both situations. Penny Nom lui répond.

		Murray pose la question : My name is Murray and I am a 10th grade student. Me and my friend have recently discovered and proved a theorem of a relitively advanced nature. It is that the the nth difference of an nth degree equation = n! times the coefficient of the highest power. One of my teachers said this theorem is part finite and that she thinks she has seen it before, but she does not remember what it is called, at what level it is taught, who discovered it or when it was invented. I would greatly appretiate answers to any of these questions. Chris Fisher lui répond.
	Difference of Squares		2001-02-22
		Bruno-Pierre pose la question : I noticed the other day that if you substract two consecutive squared positive numbers, you end up with the same result as if you add up the two numbers. Ex. 5 and 6 (2 consecutive positive numbers) 52 = 25 62 = 36 36 - 25 = 11 (Substraction of the squared numbers) 5 + 6 = 11 (Sum of the numbers) A more algebric view: a2 - b2 = a + b where a and b are consecutive positive positive numbers. (b = a + 1) I wondered if this rule had a name, and who discovered it. Penny Nom lui répond.
