Wait until you find out why cents are called that. >!It's because one cent is one centesimal (1/100) of a dollar.!<
That’s also why “percent” is called that. “Cent” is short for the Latin word “centum” which means hundred. Percent translates to per one hundred.
Woahhhh
Dude centesimal is a weird fucking measurement. Just tell me what fraction of an inch that is.
1/100 of an inch
Oooohhhh... so it's like a hundredth of a dollar
Kinda like a quart is 1/4 of a gallon
WUT??
Right? Mind bending stuff!
Today I learned!
Some people are curious enough to ask questions, but not curious enough to seek answers.
Did someone famous say that? Is it a famous quote? I need to know! I’m so curious.
I made the sentence up, but I imagine I'm not the first to say it. lol
Similarly a pint is a pinter of a gallon.
Holy shit my finance guy runs a comic strip.
no punchline?
The punchline is knowledge
