Goodliffe’s Theorem


goodliffe’s theorem predicts an inverse correlation between an individual’s understanding of percentages, and the likelihood that they use the % b-tton on a calculator.

anyone with a thorough understanding of percentages is highly unlikely to use the % b-tton on a calculator compared to someone with only a limited understanding of percentages.
megan: hey phil, i’m trying to work out a percentage thingy, do you reckon noel would show me how to use the % b-tton on my calculator?

phil: are you cray cray?! noel falls towards the extreme right of the goodliffe’s theorem curve – he’d just laugh at your stupidity. try asking matt.
