Re: [PHP] help me to solve this math maze
You'll give 100 'units' to 6 of them, and 75 to 6, thus: 6 * 100 + 6 * 75 == 1050 units Each 'unit' is valued at: 3000 / 1050 == 2.8571 Thus, you give: 6 * 285.71 + 6 * 214.28 == 2999.94, and you may keep the change ;-) Satyam - Original Message - From: Faisal Murad [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: php-general@lists.php.net Sent: Wednesday, April 04, 2007 11:44 AM Subject: [PHP] help me to solve this math maze i am making a program to give money to a group of people lets say that i have to distribute 3000 among 12 people 6 of them are adult and will get 100% 6 them are children those will get 75% from the overall amount. a common solution might appear as divide 3000 to 12 which is 250 give 250 to adults and 75% percent of it to children which is 187.5 after this kind of calculation i have 375 more to give which was supposed to be equally distributed among them can anyone understand my problem and assists me. faisal No virus found in this incoming message.
