    4286 people at match 1 plus 40% would mean 6000.4 people at match 2

    The announcer is wrong because he said exactly

    or another way.

    If there are 6000 people at match 2 then divided by 1.4 would mean 4285.7 people at match 1. Again, the key is the use of the word "exactly"
    Is it because 4,286 x 140% = 6000.4

    If there was exactly 40% more at the second match, then there can't have been a whole number of people at the first match..

    You've worked the numbers correctly though :)

    4285.714285714286 not exactly ;) off the top of my head :rotfl:
    6000.4 would be 40% more than 4286
    or it may be a trick question :eek:

    You superstars! :T We rounded up when calculating to make it easier without even thinking about it :o It was the last question on the paper and there were no answers so I couldn't check where we went wrong. I didn't want to leave it on a negative note as that leaves dd thinking she can't do it, we're both much happier now we know :)

    Thank you - we can start half term with a clear head now ;)

    Link to an offer for these in Debenham's email this morning. Are there men that would actually wear these. Or have I led a sheltered life. :o

    http://www.debenhams.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/prod_10701_10001_091010521320_-1

    My DS would definitely wear those with those awful trousers that look like they need pulling up that show your boxers :D

    but what if the 4286th person left approximately 7/10 of the way through the 1st match. surely the announcer would then be correct :D

    I know its still not a whole number
  • Not sure if its been reported yet, but scanned the Thornton's Viennese that were 1p and yesterday scanned at £5!!
    Also, anyone remember the times+ cinema free movies? It's on again bookable from today
