i dont want to use the formula .
If you don't want to use the formula that
defines what they're asking for, that's fine. But you'll probably continue to end up with a different answer, since you're not doing what they asked for.

oh come on ....thats a shortcut tips ...i told you ......thats not a
direction of a question.
you are right .....there are some questions where there are some directions are given and then some questions might be asked . you have to follow the direction to answer the questions.
For example , a direction is given
+ = multiplication
- = division
Now , this is called a direction . if this kind of direction is given and then if you are asked to solve some questions based upon this direction , then you have to obey it .
BUT , as far as my question is concerned , the rule they have given is a SHORTCUT TIPS to bypass big calculations ......this is not a direction . I am free to use their formula or go by my own way .....if i do in my own way i would get the same answer but it might take some time ....thats the only difference.
Hope , i have been able to explain you properly.
Now, ok...as far as this question is concerned , either the SHROTCUT TIPS given in the book is wrong or OUR calculation is wrong as both the answers are not matching .
However , I have full faith in the forum members , and so i conclude that the SHORTCUT TIPS is wrong and i should not use that any longer better the use the normal procedure shown by
skitter and denis.
Thank you
