you way seems so shifty though,LOL (im just in denial because i got it wrong)
quoting from elsewhere...
Question 4 b)
50 x 1.2 = 60 (first application)
60 x 1.2 = 72 (second application)
72 x 1.2 = 86.4 (third)
86.4 x 1.2 = 103.68 (fourth)
103.68 x 1.2 = 124.416 (fifth)
124.416 x 1.2 = 149.2992 (sixth)
149.2992 x 1.2 = 179.159 (seventh)
179.159 x 1.2 = 214.49 (eighth)
continuing on...
214.49 x 1.2 = 257 (ninth)
257 x 1.2 = 308.86 (tenth)
308 x 1.2 = 370 (eleventh)
370 x 1.2 = 444 (twelfth)
that's what i did. i actually couldn't remember the formulas!
