Simple Math Problem

[alex4501]

Hello All,

I have been building a quote calculator and have the following statement:

PlacesTotal = PaidPlaces * Session("QC_HalfBoard")

Where Session("QC_HalfBoard") contains the half board price.

For some reason the total generated is slightly higher then it should be.

For example

21 places @ £635 = £13,333.33

Where as it should = £13,125

Can anyone suggest any reason for this?

Thanks in advance.

Never mind I solved it.

Turned out that the result of one of the calculations was resulting in multiple points past the decimel and that was causing a small discrepency in the following math statements.

I see the operation is correct!

635 + 21 = 13,335

What do you want to achieve?

I see the operation is correct!

635 + 21 = 13,335

Man, I sure HOPE NOT!!!

My math says 635 + 21 is 656.

Anyway, why don't you read his SECOND post? He says he solved it.
