The [Detroit] Pistons did not lose because of the lack of ability. They are an all-around better team. They lost because of the

law of averages. They will beat the [San Antonio] Spurs every two times out of three. When you examine the NBA finals [of 2005], that is exactly how they lost the seventh (last game) because that would have been three out of three. The Spurs will beat the Pistons one out of three. It just so happens that, that one time was the final game, because the Pistons had already won two in a row.

then

XXX

x

⋅

y

=

c

for some constant

c

We are told when

x

=

then

y

15

So

XXX

2

⋅

15

=

c

XXX

⇒

c

=

30

and

XXX

x

⋅

y

=

XXX

x

What decimal is greater 0.732 or 0.75
BARSIC [14]
0.732
0.750

If you have trouble with decimals, then multiply both numbers by a constant number to get rid of the decimals. In this case, we would multiply by 1000.

0.732 x 1000 = 732
0.750 x 1000 = 750

Obviously, 750 is bigger than 732. Therefore, 0.75 is bigger than 7.32.

By the way, this is a property: 
If a \ \textgreater \  b, then a \cdot c ~\ \textgreater \ ~ b\cdot c
