HOW THE FUCK DO I DO MATH!?

HOW THE FUCK DO I DO MATH!?

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

.0015

0.542255373
send that amount.

Why the fuck do you need exactly 350 you weirdo?

underrated thread, I always thought "i bet theres other people struggling with this problem rn"

I learned this shit in 7th grade, what fucking schools did you guys go to.

Thanks for trying to help me out, but where are you getting .542255373?

I got fucking 360 something...

I was drunk most of 7th and dropped out mid 8th.

What's your public address OP? I'll help you out

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

i think you should be more concerned with how fucking autistic you are and perhaps take steps to remedy that a slice

Here's the actual equation:
(1-0.0015)*0.54144199=0.542255373

0.542255373*0.0015=0.000813383

0.54144199+0.000813383=0.542255373

only the 1st equation matters, but the others were me checking my work

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.

ffs can't anyone think in a simple, straightforward way?

wolframalpha.com/input/?i=349.45855801 + 0.9985 * x = 350

349.45855801 + 0.9985 * x = 350
x = 0.542255

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?

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.

>people this autistic are going to be millionaires

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

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

Never change Veeky Forums.

Just buy too much and then sell the overage. Duh.

>Tfw lost out on gains when i autistically rounded coins down to exact values ending in 0's

Damn, I forgot, in the first equation, the * should be a รท.

>(1-0.0015)*0.54144199=0.542255373
Wait a second, (1-0.0015)*0.54144199 does not equal 0.542255373

I'm getting .540629827...

Haha, and the divisor and the dividends' positions should be reversed. Sorry op, i used an excel sheet so i wrote the equation wrong

(1-0.0015)/0.54144199=1.844149546....

um, fuck man I'M STILL FUCKING CONFUSED AAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH

...

Finally, I think I got it, thanks again guys.

Just buy a little more over 350 ark and sell the overage.
Easy 350 ark....
idiot

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

you just scrambled my eggs senpai

You'd pay fees and taxes twice

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

*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
