Yes Gavin - that's what I did, it was easier to type in the division at the end than bracketing it to show it after the addition.Gavin Chipper wrote: ↑Fri Nov 01, 2019 2:40 pmA bit showboaty dividing by 2 at the end. It's 41×15.

Susie tells us that "normal" comes from a Latin word for a carpenter's square. What she didn't mention is the still-used mathematical sense of a line perpendicular to a curve or a surface, which obviously comes from this. (There are other mathematical senses of the word, but that's an aside.)
