no problem. There is a sticky post at the top of the maths forum regarding rules etc :smile:
I'm assuming you meant 0.733333333333333 etc
Assign 0.73333333 to x
Thus, 7.3333333 is 10x
Thus 73.333333 is 100x
From here just manipulate the numbers :smile:

This thread is a year old now - I suspect the OP either solved it or moved on to other things :smile:
