If you remember (instead of calculate) the numbers (of your fav. MET), which accuracy do you use?

E.g. for -4; -2 the exact number is 32.8160 and at -4;-3 it is 42.6270. I think for OTB calculations you should use rounded numbers to the first decimal, so this would turn into 33.0 and 42.5. I think it is much easier to work with numbers ending on either 5 or 0 and it won't hurt the overall accuracy much.

Second question: what is the most efficient way to calculate (e.g.) 6.5/26.5 OTB?

(Score -7;-5, gammonless, initial cube: TP = (30.0-23.5)/(50-23.5) = 6.5/26.5)

I have huge difficulties with mental divisions of those decimal figures. Same is true for numbers like 144/179 e.g. Kleinman Count. Any ideas how to do this quick and accurate?
