I was driving into school today and, once again, noticed the price of gas.
It’s bad enough, the price that is, but can someone explain to me why ANYTHING costs a ‘dollar’ amount, a ‘cent’ amount and then a fraction of a cent????
Hello. I’m paying $3.67 and 9/10 for a gallon of gas? Nine tenths of a cent???
So when I’m all finished filling the tank by myself, why does it never total 'whatever', 'whatever' and a fraction of a cent? How can it always end up on a whole cent? I’m no math wiz, but even I know something isn’t kosher.
I fear I am being taken for a ride.
