I need math help.

Edited on Fri Jul-09-10 08:41 PM by gateley
My nephew was busted for a DUI. Minors (he's 20) can actually have a .02 and not get cited. Anyway, he told me he had a .1 and I thought that meant he 'passed' -- he said no, a .1, not a .01.

I can never "get" that stuff. Same as I can't tell which can of cat food has the higher amount of taurine :)

So can you explain it to me?

And -- an adult is cited at .08 -- is that less or more than .1?

This breaks my heart because he's such a good kid, but seriously, I hope he learns a lesson.

Thanks for any clarification.
