Honestly you lot...

....if you want to razz someone's mathematical skills you might want to read their post in full first!
A meal WITH 4 friends means five people altogether.
£25.50 per head is close enough although it does make for a lousy tip!

Bigfoot dave's calculation is wrong

I don't think any of you seem to have taken much from the book since, £127 divided by four is actually £31.75.

I read bigfootdaves comments below and have not laughed so much for ages....... I was literally on the floor. Oh, and the book was excellent.

This is a great book for anyone who is number-phobic. He gently builds confidence in handling numbers through easy to answer tests, teaching you some amazing 'tricks' along the way. Pity the reviewer before me hasn't learnt them!! A meal costing £125.00 split equally between 4 people is £31.25 each! Still, I'd be happy to eat with him any day!!!!

Brilliant, entertaining and great exercise for the brain

As well as being able to learn the tricks, you will find that your general mental arithmetic abilities are greater, but there's nothing like going for a meal with 4 friends and if the bill comes to £127 you can *instantly* work out that equals £25.50 each. Buy this book and throw your calculator in the bin.
