You're not returning anything if you pay per month and one month is shorter. Nice attempt.
Also, I said your average February not average number of days in February. Your average February has 28 days while your average number of days in February has obviously 1/28th more days. Just like your average person has two hands, it's based on the average of the buckets not the average in the buckets.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Average
Why are you using mode instead of the standard average? You link averages, than quote a part from “mode” instead of the standard average.
Do you think that defends your point? That you’re intentionally using an obscure definition instead of the standard?
Also, sleazy as shit you edit your comments with different information after the fact.
Please provide these plenty of examples of things you can pay for monthly. Why do you keep moving the goals posts instead of defending your original claim…?
Oh yeah it's so sleazy to simply point out how you have no idea what you're talking about. I didn't even edit what my comment said, I simply added a link and quote to a wiki page.
How dare I add facts that show you don't know what you're talking about. 😂
So you don’t have any examples of things that are paid for monthly…?
What a fucking shocker…. Every comment avoids defending their point and argues with goalpost moving…
Got me. It's all just a goal-post move in saying averages are averages.
Most of those pay by month are year leases, so yeah you’re agreeing to pay for the year, averaged
The returning was using an example to support my argument.
The average person doesn’t have two hands… that’s a completely false statement.
No one has 3 hands to bring the average back up, and by saying the average is 2, you are claiming no one has 1 or zero hands. Thats clearly false, so the average can’t be 2…
Isn’t averages taught in second grade…?
We've already discussed how there are monthly expenses not on a lease.
The average person does have two hands, if you test it you'll see they do, it's the wonders of whole numbers and how most people don't have a fraction of a hand.
Aren't whole numbers taught before that?
And you’re free to argue that you’re paying for 28 days instead of 31. Some are willing to give you a deal just to shut you up. The vast majority are yearly leases that are averaged. Can you provide an example of something you pay for just one month? That’s not daily or weekly instead wrapped into monthly…?
No, the average person has less than two hands, and your whole example isn’t even correct. Lots of people are missing fingers or portions of their hands…
Also, the average February has more than 28 days since every fourth has an additional day to bring the average up.
It really sounds like you don’t understand what the term average means here….
Nope, the average person has two hands, the average number of hands on a person is less than two. Just like the average American is white and not a combination of all sampled ethnic groups.
The average February more than 3/4ths of them are 28 days.
It really sounds like you don't understand statistics.
You really can’t seem to stick to the same point can you? And where’s the examples? You don’t have any do you? You claimed there was plenty, let’s see them.
Your first comment you use decimals, and now you’re saying everything has to be whole numbers… can’t change your story to fit what you want mate.
Stop moving the goalposts, you made a mistake, don’t try to argue different points to save face. Take the L and move on.
So is the average american .7 white?
My first comment uses a whole number for the number of days in an average February. Is english your 3rd language?
Here, read about modes in https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Average take the L and move on.
Nice “whole numbers” lmfao…
The average American isn’t white, most are mixed race and not white…. So you aren’t even correct there either.
You really don’t know what you’re talking about here and have argued 5 different irrelevant points.
30.437-X=2.437 Solve for X
Take the L and move on
Where’s your examples? Where is your proof of anything you’ve claimed? You can’t support anything you’ve claimed and bloviated over.
The only one needing to take the L is you, you made a mistake and have tripled down on 5 completely different irrelevant points to try and save face.
You’ve proved nothing but bloviate about nothing relevant to the discussion.
The average American is not white, the average person has less than two hands… averages don’t NEED to be rounded to a whole number, that’s just plain wrong.
I linked you the wiki page for it, it's not my fault you can't read.
Take the L and move on
Might need to retake 2nd grade my dude.
Maybe read your own source…?
Mode is secondary, you’re intentionally choosing a non-standard average to attempt to detract from the main point. And even mode can be decimal as well… so what point do you even think that’s making here anyways…?
I’ll retake second grade once you learn basic reading comprehension…. The fact you need to specify mode instead of average should be more than enough to show you’re trying to mislead here…
And again, please provide the examples of stuff you pay for monthly, you said there is plenty, and haven’t listed one, and have only moved the goalposts every comment instead of answering a very simple follow up to your original main point…:
Oh so now you know that the mode average is not an average. Lol just take the L
😂
Uhhh… mode is an average, one of many, but not the standard… I never said or claimed otherwise dude. Why do you keep insulting me instead of defending your original point…?
Yet again you’re wrong.
Please provide these plenty of examples of things you can pay for monthly. Why do you keep moving the goals posts instead of defending your original claim…?
So you can't read context? 😂
Bro, just take the L
You’ve yet to answer the main question. And this goal post moving is asinine.
Please provide these plenty of examples of things you can pay for monthly. Why do you keep moving the goals posts instead of defending your original claim…?
Just take the L that you don't know what an average is.
There is more than one average and you’re intentionally choosing an obscure one.
Please provide these plenty of examples of things you can pay for monthly. Why do you keep moving the goals posts instead of defending your original claim…?
It's not obscure, I clearly told you what was meant and you doubled down all the way here saying it wasn't an average.
Better get back into 2nd grade mate. 😂
