    132500 x .99 / 100</p>

    the answer must be slightly less than 1% which is 1325</p>

    How do you get yours? How can 0.99% (i.e. less than 1%) actually be more than the original number?

    Bloddy hell. Why do you need a calculator for something as simple as that.

    No offence intended, but if you really are as thick as you say then perhaps it would be best not to volunteer answers to maths questions in future?

    Just a thought, like.
