No, you are not.diceyfume said:
You don't need to. Use your brain, instead of waiting to be spoonfed answers.
Furthermore, it is not an "insult" to you to say you struggle with the maths of 8-year olds, it happens to be an unfortunate fact.
Stating facts does not constitute an insult, however unpleasant those facts might be.

A time out is certainly needed here, since this is doing no one any good. Diceyfume: have a think about the problem, and come back tomorrow with a clearer head. I am locking this thread for ~12 hours, to enable all to clear their heads.
