I avoid the first problem by not tipping

[CloudmasterGaming]

Me as a British:
WHAT THE FUCK IS TIPPING!???

[Owen__Jones]

tip = don't live in a country where tipping is the regular thing to do

[ThePointlessBox_]

Easiest way to calculate this is just multiply your bill with 0 and you’re good to go

[Nick_]

fun fact: switching x and y's spots is because "x% of y" is basically just multiplication. percentage is just a decimal multiplied by 100, so instead of it being 1/1 it's 100/100. And the "of" is just saying multiplied by, "x% of y" is just "x*y" with x being a decimal, 1 for 100% and 0 being 0%.

that second tip is so helpful same with the first one

The first tip is only helpful on numbers that are easy to use as percentages (10, 25, 50, 75, 100, etc). Otherwise if you try to, for example, find 8% of 8, it wouldn't make it any easier. This is the same for almost any number.

The Waiter while I’m doing this math: 👁️👄👁️

[ShutmeowUp]

The first time solving by Y and X have been atleast kind of useful to us normal humans.

[DazzlingSounds]

Can you please continue this series? It seems genuinely helpful!

[DoctorPoopenFarten]

Calculating the tip is easy. It's always 0

[MalakHamada-gkmr]

Thx dude the percent one really helped 😅

[noahseaner]

That’s why I always tip 20%… just multiply the bill by 2 and move the decimal right on spot

[TRITONEDITZ]

when you realize that, useful maths are just simple, yet they still teach us breathtaking mathematics.

[Storms_Editz]

Let’s introduce him to the calculator. It’s about time we do so.

[The-Maxter]

The second tip got me thinking on why I haven't thought of that

[livii]

This has me rethinking my life choices…

[sammiecakie]

Imagine tipping just cuz the business can’t afford to pay their employees properly 😂

Bro changed the way my brain was wired. Thanks, you're a genius!
