2.11 what? Inches, meters, light-years? The number 2.11 from zero is not a hug difference. Especially since he said that the number 2.11 not 2.11 meters/miles/light-years/etc. was a huge difference.
You allz idoits 13

The point is: We're not taking a math test and a teacher isn't judging the answers on the test.
Lol?
A 2.11 difference in speed is not a huge difference.
You're comparing test scores and dosages of medicine to speed. Is this some joke?
Originally posted by Seraphim XIIIMust you make a big deal out of everything? The original problem here is that you calculated incorrectly. And somehow that evolved into a discussion of how significant the difference was between your incorrect calculation and the correct one. Regardless, you were wrong.

30 m/s=66.96 mph
65 mph=29.057 m/s
Problem solved.

Your right, but you see now your classifying the number. When you say 2.11 cc's more, or 2.11 meters more, or 2.11 lightyears more, than yes that number (in relations to the new difference found) your right is a pretty big difference. Especially if you're looking for accuracy in an answer.
However, you are chaning the face of the original debate. I say the number 2.11 from zero isn't a "huge" difference in comparison to infinity (all possible differences). Because were 2.11 may not be in meters, cc's, lightyears, or percentage, it will always be a number
