That depends how you do it

$0.01 * 3 * 4 = $0.12
$0.12 ^ 2 = $0.0144
$0.0144 ^ 2 = $0.00020736

My offer for 2/100 of a cent remains. Our offers are going down.

except you are wrong IE offered a penny not .01 of a dollar so you owe me 207$ ill omit the change

According to Wikipedia
A common colloquial name for the one-cent coin in the United States and in Canada, worth 1⁄100 of the dollar: see Penny (U.S. coin), Penny (Canadian coin).

1/100 = 0.01

im sorry i can not find a facepalm worthy of your argument :eg:

IE offered me a physical penny then he decided he would triple his offer so he is offering me 3 pennies. you said well i will quadruple that, so offering me 12 pennies. IE said he would square that so he offered me 144 pennies. you go well i will square that so you offered me 20736 pennies

i want them now please :thanks:

That is a valid argument, however, we need IE to confirm that he would have physically sent the penny as opposed to a PayPal for 0.01

See to me the question doesn't go back to whether I would have sent a penny via mail.... of course not. That's preposterous, and I would have spent far too much on postage anyway. Plus you know... all those thieving postal workers always stealing money out of envelopes:tinfoil:

Initially the value offered was $0.01, and I don't think there is any debate about that.

I wasn't offering $1 * .01 rather just $0.01. Big difference.

So the question really does come down to one little point (pun intended:p) known as the decimal point... which in this case is not applicable.

So Jacob, if you want to have a bit of a laugh, I suppose you could mail Bennet 20736 pennies... but shipping would be a pain:D

Therefore... pay up or else :spank: followed by :twak: followed by :gun: followed by :poke:... whoops said too much :shhh: :eg:

Edit: So I just noticed I'm using so way too much, so I'm changing it to therefore:tinfoil:

You said you offered $0.01, but then said the decimal place is not applicable :thinking:

It's not.

I offered one penny. Meaning one WHOLE value. Not .01 of a dollar.

Since you brought the question down to intent... my intent was to offer $1.44 at the last step. To my mind the square of that would have been $207.36:shhh:

Of course I'm willing to concede the point... as long as you're able to provide Bennet exact payment, no rounding up:eg:

I see. I better email my friend who has a CNC to get that tiny penny made.

1.44^2 = $2.0736

So I need a 736/10000 scale penny. + 2 more pennies

Ok, but again you're not dealing with fractions of numbers, rather whole numbers.

144^2 = 20736. That many pennies = $207.36.

So up to you if you want to pay in pennies, but I would just use paypal:na:
