I want exactly 350 ARK. Right now I have 349.45855801 ARK. A difference of .54144199 ARK. I add the trading fee of .15% to that amount of .54144199 and I get .000812162985. We need to round this amount of .000812162985 since the number has too many fucking decimals, so we round this to .00081216.
Then, I would THINK you add this amount to the original amount you want, which is .54144199, so you'd get .54225415. This would be the TOTAL amount I'd think you'd need to buy from Polo to get the desired amount you want (again is .54144199), BUT IT FUCKING ISN'T.
.15% of .54225415 is .000813381225!!!! NOT .00081216!!!
WHAT THE FUCK AM I DOING WRONG, GOD DAMNIT I SHOULDN'T HAVE SKIPPED ALL THOSE ALGEBRA CLASSES MY SENIOR YEAR OF HIGH-SCHOOL!! I'M A FUCKING RETARDED, NIGGER-TIER BRAINLET!! AAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
lmao, you need to solve for x where x is the amount pre transactoin
x*.15=.54144199

0.542255373 send that amount.
Ian White
Why the fuck do you need exactly 350 you weirdo?
Daniel Reed
underrated thread, I always thought "i bet theres other people struggling with this problem rn"
Kevin Jackson
I learned this shit in 7th grade, what fucking schools did you guys go to.
Benjamin Long
Thanks for trying to help me out, but where are you getting .542255373?
I got fucking 360 something...
Caleb Lewis
I was drunk most of 7th and dropped out mid 8th.

What's your public address OP? I'll help you out
Chase Carter
Fucking autists. I bet you transfer pennies out of your savings accounts so that the balance is an exactly even whole number
>implying savings accounts
Jack Jenkins
i think you should be more concerned with how fucking autistic you are and perhaps take steps to remedy that a slice
Joshua Evans
Here's the actual equation: (1-0.0015)*0.54144199=0.542255373
0.542255373*0.0015=0.000813383
0.54144199+0.000813383=0.542255373
Adam Butler
only the 1st equation matters, but the others were me checking my work
Oliver Stewart
you want x- .0015x = .54144199, or .9985x = .54144199 or x = .54225537
the whole "math is useless" thing is pushed by retards who don't know how to use math to their advantage; math is actually a really good skill to have. If you're going to be trading, you should definitely AT LEAST understand basic algebra if not calculus/statistics. Buy a book and get studying kiddo.
Colton Stewart
ffs can't anyone think in a simple, straightforward way?
how much do I need to add to my wallet to get 350 while taking into account that I'm going to lose .15% of that money to the fee?
Adam Hughes
Thanks friend, I was stressing out big time on this.
>(1-0.0015) No fucking way I would've figured that out, jesus, I don't even fucking get it, but it werks, thanks again friendo.
Oliver Thompson
>people this autistic are going to be millionaires
Hudson Robinson
0.01 to 1 is 1% to 100%, so if you want 0.15% its 0.0015
>people that aren't this autistic ARE millionares
Brayden Bennett
1 * x is x, 1 is basically 100% 1-0.0015 is 100% - 0.15% = 0.9985 0.9985 * x = amount of money the receiver will actually receive from you if you send X to him and the fee is 0.15%
that's because 1 * x - 0.0015 * x is actually x * (1 - 0.0015) = x * (0.9985)
so, what you were trying to do is this: your_wallet + what_you_want_to_send = your_desired_nice_number 349.45855801 + 0.9985 * x = 350
>Tfw lost out on gains when i autistically rounded coins down to exact values ending in 0's
Samuel Diaz
Damn, I forgot, in the first equation, the * should be a รท.
Jaxon Flores
>(1-0.0015)*0.54144199=0.542255373 Wait a second, (1-0.0015)*0.54144199 does not equal 0.542255373
I'm getting .540629827...
Jackson Anderson
Haha, and the divisor and the dividends' positions should be reversed. Sorry op, i used an excel sheet so i wrote the equation wrong
Nathaniel Jackson
(1-0.0015)/0.54144199=1.844149546....
um, fuck man I'M STILL FUCKING CONFUSED AAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH
Nolan Hall

Andrew Taylor
Finally, I think I got it, thanks again guys.
Mason Sanchez
Just buy a little more over 350 ark and sell the overage. Easy 350 ark.... idiot
Alexander Nelson
I know this feel all too well
>3 ETH >5 LTC >58.44334599 ARK
Some how I need to nail down an even 100 ARK or I'll go insane
Jaxson Taylor
you just scrambled my eggs senpai
Chase Miller
You'd pay fees and taxes twice
Gabriel Reed
He actually screwed up in the same place i did. it's actually:
amount you want to receive/(1-transaction fee) = amount you should send
Nathaniel Williams
*ahem* you want .54144199 ark more, niggerop they take .15%, niggerop ergo 0.9985x=0.54144199 niggerop. the 0.9985 is 100%-0.15%, nigger op x is what you need to type in to send, nigger op 0.54144199/0.9985=x niggerop send 0.5422553731 ARK, niggerop round that if you need to, nigger
