    Answer the question, please!
    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.
