Re: Wow, how hard is that to understand??? 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."

OMG! I am SO glad SOMEONE realized it was thousandths! |

| 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

Belvedere Tiburon, CA | 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.
