20/4 = 54/20 = .20You know... This game involves quite a bit of math... You may want to brush up on your algebra.Just saying.Edit: the fact that you are still arguing without checking a calculator on your math that you are way too overconfident in, tells me you are a person who doesn't like to admit when they are wrong or very good at taking criticism objectively.

Clearly you're just not seeing the big picture here. ;)
Also the fact that he is in d.v and has this much money says a lot too.
To the other guy btw the math is all the same no matter how u slice it .2 =5. i wasnt using algebra, i was using division. / means divide in math terms. no point of using aleg for that. no one is wrong we looked at the math problem from different angle/

Nor is 0.2 equal to five percent; it is equal to one-fifth, which is 20%. Well, theoretically, in a base 40 mathematic system, it could be accurate to say that 4 is 5% of 20, but only because that 20 would be 80, and even then I'm not sure how the concept of percent translates to other bases. I think to sum it up, he wasn't questioning your division skills, just that you were diving in the wrong direction or just completely misunderstanding the concept of percentage.
Wait... Did that guy say division isn't algebra? I just noticed on the re-read that he said he wasn't using algebra he was using division?Alright I'm done with the of topic now.... Some people you just can't argue with or teach
