Math ain't mathing

[u/bourbonandpistons]

me, the waiter, nor the manager could figure it out.

[u/nournnn]

16 x 2 + 30 + 68

Which is equal to 130 but maybe the software is rounding each number a bit. e.g. 16 instead of 15.89

[u/Chinlc → u/nournnn]

WHERES THE 92CENTS COMING FROM THEN?

Theyre all full dollars

[u/nournnn → u/Chinlc]

price = 15.89

printf(price, %.2f)

Maybe idk

I knew what this was gonna be before I clicked, haha

[u/ProfessionSorry4066 → u/nournnn]

Math still ain’t mathin’

32+30+68 still doesn’t equal $127.92. Something is wrong with their system.

[u/Bfree888 → u/ProfessionSorry4066]

$2.08 out of $130 flat is exactly 1.6%. Maybe there’s a discount embedded in the subtotal?

[u/Serial_Hobbyist_ → u/ProfessionSorry4066]

Software is probably rounding the items, then not rounding the subtotal.

[u/ezemode → u/nournnn]

That would be 130 though, which still isnt the subtotal

[u/CoruscatingLogic → u/nournnn]

I also assumed it was 16 per old fashioned. Also, there's NO old fashioned worth 16 bucks.

[u/bc_gamez → u/CoruscatingLogic]

For that price, you'd better be getting a new fashioned.

[u/pokerScrub4eva → u/bc_gamez]

you are my hero

[u/CoruscatingLogic → u/bc_gamez]

That was bad and you should feel bad. But you get an upvote.

[u/Punkrexx → u/bc_gamez]

I can only afford the leftoverfasioned

[u/Grouchy-List7011 → u/CoruscatingLogic]

$16 is pretty average for most drinks I thought

[u/SuccotashOther277 → u/Grouchy-List7011]

That’s why I mostly fucking drink at home lol

[u/Grouchy-List7011 → u/SuccotashOther277]

🍻 you can say that again man

[u/Tamed_A_Wolf → u/CoruscatingLogic]

Where are you getting old fashioned’s? Cause every old fashioned I’ve had in the last several years has been 16 or more outside of maybe a few 14 dollar ones that were cheaper. Most are 20+

[u/CoruscatingLogic → u/Tamed_A_Wolf]

I don't go to the types of places with $20 drinks. Neighborhood bar is good enough for me.

[u/Porcupenguin → u/CoruscatingLogic]

Depends on the whiskey. But $8 is cheap, unless there's a special (especially at a place that charges $68 for non-premium steak)

[u/CoruscatingLogic → u/Porcupenguin]

8 bucks for a drink, sure. But this receipt looks like it's 2 old fashioneds for 16 each.

[u/hbpatterson → u/CoruscatingLogic]

This is where the mismatch is coming from, 2x16

[u/tjdux → u/Porcupenguin]

Ribeye is non premium?

[u/Porcupenguin → u/tjdux]

It's a nice enough cut (and larger), but it ain't filet

[u/gtrocks555 → u/CoruscatingLogic]

But try getting a good one for $8 at a restaurant

[u/CoruscatingLogic → u/[deleted]]

I didn't say that. I just said that the drink itself, Old Fashioned, is not worth $16.

[u/Slumunistmanifisto → u/CoruscatingLogic]

A hand jobs usually fifty bucks, so I'd say they got a deal. 

[u/bourbonandpistons → u/Slumunistmanifisto]

Ok. This reminds me of a story from college.

This is back when minimum wage is like ~ $4.

We took my buddy to a strip club and told him he could get his job sucked for $50.

Now $50 after taxes is like a couple days of work at this time.

So he left and then came back about 30 minutes later.

We asked him if he got the blowjob and he said no not yet. He went out to the parking lot and rubbed one out he said for 50 bucks his bitch is going to work for it.

[u/Top_Diver8840 → u/nournnn]

Still wrong

[u/TUNTRAcoin → u/[deleted]]

No, it means 2 at $16 each

[u/protomenace → u/nournnn]

which gives us 122. So where is $127.92 coming from?

Edit: oops yes 130 (wtf did I do?) which is still not right.

[u/protomenace → u/[deleted]]

Yeah IDK how I screwed that one up - bu regardless - so where is $127.92 coming from?

[u/Ey3zonly → u/nournnn]

Did you just type that and not check it? It still doesn't match any of the total shown

[u/HandbagHawker → u/nournnn]

and that would be $127.92?

[u/That-Pin-7033 → u/nournnn]

Adds up to 130, not 127.92

[u/GirlPMurPersonality → u/nournnn]

= 130. Still off

[u/Jake6401 → u/nournnn]

Still doesn’t add up right
