it would be better if you edit your post and write your question there too.

0.02 is smaller than 0.04.

but 0.02 is GREATER than the (square of 0.02 )
the latter statement applies to all fractional values (ie 0-1 )

Thats what I thought. On page 217 in OG 10th Edition it says that 0.04 is smaller than 0.02.

I couldn't believe that my maths had fallen to that level 5 days before my exam.......relieved.
