Host: How many people quit smoking each year?

Eletta Hansen: Two-thirds of all smokers are considering quitting smoking; one-fourth of those will make a serious quit attempt this year, only about seven percent will be successful on their first try. Remember this is a chronic and addictive disease. It may take several attempts to quit smoking, and people who failed on their first attempt should not be discouraged. We are here today, to give you some specific steps on how to quit smoking.

Answer the question, please! by JimJam at 02/20/09 12:57AM Flag

Why go to all this trouble and blatantly fail to answer the question?? Two-thirds try want to.... One-fourth try... that's two-twelfths... one-sixth... try... one sixth are successful... one-sixth of one-sixth is one-thirty-sixth... convert to a decimal is 0.03..., but of what number.... What a waste.
