Dragonlance, I only just realised that you were offering to help with the Reference material thread.

That is very nice of you. Thank you.    

It is a big job, you have not been posting very long, maybe it is too big a job for you ?  

If you can do it, that would be great :)

QUOTE FROM DRAGONLANCE:

"If you have 10 rabbits and divided them by 2 how many rabbits do you have?

It is 20 rabbits. "

------------------------------------------------

Hang on  Drangonlance.  

If you have 10 rabbits and you divide them by 2 you have only 5 rabbits !!

If you have 10 rabbits and you divide them by 1/2  THEN  you have 20 rabbits!!

Maybe the pain killers that you are taking for you back are making your brain not work properly ?

If it is base 8 it should have been wrtitten like this

4log_8(sqrt2)

or

4 times the log of sqrt2 base 8

or

$$\\Let\\\\
x=4log_8\sqrt{2}\\\\
x=log_8\sqrt{2}^4\\\\
x=log_8 2^2\\\\
x=log_8 4\\\\
4=8^x\\\\
2^2=2^{3x}\\\\
2=3x\\\\
x=\frac{2}{3}\\\\
4log_8\sqrt{2}=\frac{2}{3}$$

$$27^0\;3'\;50"$$

$$\left({\mathtt{27}}{\mathtt{\,\small\textbf+\,}}{\frac{{\mathtt{3}}}{{\mathtt{60}}}}{\mathtt{\,\small\textbf+\,}}{\frac{{\mathtt{50}}}{{\mathtt{3\,600}}}}\right) = {\frac{{\mathtt{9\,743}}}{{\mathtt{360}}}} = {\mathtt{27.063\: \!888\: \!888\: \!888\: \!888\: \!9}}$$       degrees  :)

What about it?

 It cannot be simplified or factorized :)

YEP, welcome to the forum Ineeda_sandwich, I'm hungry too    LOL

$$\\\frac{dividend}{divisor}=Quotient\\\\
\qquad{$multiply both sides by divisor}\\\\
dividend = Quotient * divisor$$

I like your photos Rosala :)    

Are those cars parked on dirt or on cement?

Why is the middle of the road made from a different material to the verge?  

If the verge is dirt then I guess it is cost, but the edge of the tar would get damaged all the time and the road would need constant repairs.  Is that what happens?
