Re: Wow, how hard is that to understand??? If a dollar is 100 cents, how is .002 dollars .20? I read it as 2/10 of a cent.

Actually...
At $.002 (two thousandths of a dollar) you would need 100 units to equal $.20, 2/10 of a dollar, or 20 cents.
At .002 cents (two thousandths of a cent) you would need 10,000 units to equal $.20, 2/10 of a dollar, or 20 cents. (or 50,000 to equal 100 cents or 1.00 dollar)
.2 = 2 tenths
.02 = 2 hundredths
.002 = 2 thousandths
Be careful not to mix up your units of measure when calculating.

I am glad you went depth with it, because when the first "!YOU'RE WRONG!" post came in, I thought "Dude, welcome to 5th and 6th grade, take a seat, lets learn."

I'm almost devastated at how many people can't figure this out.
0.002 cents = 0.00002 dollars
0.002 dollars = 0.2 cents

said by manfmmd:said by DrewCapu:said by AJICQ499087:Seem like lot of people in this Forum don't even know how to do simple math.  We're more used to converting things like inches to feet to yards. All this moving decimal stuff, apparently, is very confusing. There goes my hope for the US to one day convert to the metric system!?! Better yet, 1/10 th millidollars. Seriously, I get a kick when I see Americans mixing the metric and imperial system together.
They do that crap on Myth Busters all the time, and I don't know how they manage to calculate anything right.. lol

Heck, I'm not even surprised. Remember, these are the graduates who have had "cultural awareness" issues pumped into their heads instead of math and science.
