You know what really gets me about these threads? Everybody being like "Can you believe Americans are stupid enough to comprehend fractions? I'm too smart to comprehend fractions."
thinking that knowing that 1/3 * 1/8 = 1/24 is something that anybody wouldn't know is stupid
the point is the impracticality of the result being essentially equivalent to 95/3
