Math problem
Posted: Wed Sep 01, 2004 12:33 pm
I suck at math so I need help here. It doesnt sound as it is that hard really. Even Oxford should be able to figure this out.
The cleaning machines I sell sometimes need to go in forklift isles that are elevated a bit.
I know the percentage that the machines can handle with diesel engines/battery packs etc. and if I know the percentage of the elevation then there is no problem.
A customer now gave me this:
The forklift isle is 16 meters long and elevates 13 cm/m which gives you an angle of 8 degrees.
How do I translate this into percentages?
