My gas bill is $249.
That amount is 99% greater than the average of select, similar neighbors. How do I get the value that would represent my bill absent the 99%? I tried: 249 * -1.99 <-- doesn't work x = 249 - .99 <-- looking at it, it doesn't make sense ? (edit) I may not have provided sufficient information. The all neighbors average 226 Therms gas. I'm using 449 Therms. Given this information, could I just do a proportion 226/449 249/x? Mark Last edited by markg2; 03-29-2017 at 11:46 AM. Reason: Additional information |

X + 0.99x = 249
1.99x = 249 x = 249/1.99 x = 125.13 |
