math

math is hard, for real, for most people beyond whole number arithmetic, like not understanding relative sizes of fractions (thinking ⅓ is less than ¼) or mistakes when calculating minutes & days durations across hours or months, so when blogging, writing microcopy, or designing a user interface, keep any use of math relatively simple and instead directly present visually clear durations and relative sizes.
