Why are Americans so afraid of pic rel?

Fractions are easier to remember

What’s half of 7/32?
7/64ths...

this is just my 1/50th dollars but this is retarded

YWNBAW
Also, it's 9/20ths

We use decimals for money because we want to foreigners to understand. We use fractions to confuse foreigners. It works well since Americans understand decimals because money but also understand fractions. Meanwhile a Russian, Chink, or German will get confused without a chart to convert which each military is unlikely to give those out for it being a waste of resources.

I am not talking about the metric system, but rather about how you write numbers in general (like 1/4 mile rather than 0.25 mile on road signs)
>386372370
>0.333333333333333333333333333333^999 The whole purpose of fractions is to use them when needed. BTW you can also write that number as 0.(3)

Bait, you can tell because a real eurofag would be using a god damn comma instead of decimal point

>Both Democrats and Republicans hate linear (decimal) writing system and they prefer using fractions

Where exactly is it you've seen this behavior? Because everything I've seen here in the US is the opposite. People almost always tend to reduce to approximate decimal values rather than using exact fractions outside of engineering or scientific use.

Do you not understand fractions? We understand both and have no problem switching back and forth as needed.

Then explain me what the fuck is that "9/10" doing at the end of the price in pic rel

Why do Americans do the date format like 7/22/22? Completely retarded.

You mean 9/20? Its an IQ thing, we can interpret numbers in different formats. It also helps with geometric spacial reasoning.

I don’t think I’ve ever seen a sign with 1/2 miles on it. Why wouldn’t you just put the road sign a mile away from the landmark? That way you can save money by not having to pay for the additional numbers on the sign and can cut down on how much you have to tip the road sign printer.

July twenty second, two thousand twenty two.

Why the fuck do you care for the BILLIONTH time?! Get a new hobby Eurofags. We ain't going full metric.

Why are you intent on using one side questions?
I don’t debate cowards I already won

Yeah, I know, and it's retarded. Join the rest of the world and write it as 22/7/22 you bunch of muppets.

While we're on the subject, who in gods green earth do you parade of spastics have your own definition of a gallon?

Because it's written how we SAY it. July 4th, 1776. 07/04/1776.

>Both Democrats and Republicans hate linear (decimal) writing system and they prefer using fractions. Even for simple numbers like 0.45 they'd rather write 56080/102400
I would like to know whatbwas going through your head when you decided to make this up.
Go ahead, I'll wait

It's the arrows. The Indians used to shoot them at us when we first got here.

Why the fuck would we want to be like you loser faggots? Fuck off!

Because the old roads are supposed to be broken into 1 mile by 1 mile grids. So you just say a quarter mile, half mile, down the road...

Im in rural Saskatchewan, everyone still uses miles for directions because thats the lay of the land
