Etisalat, for your own interest, you would not like to have a geek working for you. We work alone or as consultants... Not Interested!

Bro., i believe there is something you ain't doing right, anyway i already submitted mine, check the figures again, it wasn't 72 i saw there rather i saw 3.72 as the figure stated, i think this should help and ensure you round up your answer this time to the nearest whole number.

This is math, right? I believe 72/8 = 12/1.333333
I didn't apply, but I believe this might have worked, depending on the number of decimal places required
