Cheaper than diesel!
- I can remember diesel being cheaper than gas. Like substantially. At least by a dollar+
  Then 911 happened and it changed iirc

I don't know whose fault this is, but my suspicion is that it's seg('s)fault.
- Hey, give him some slack, he's under the weather after the core dumped him
Love that you have to specify it's a joke because someone here would legitimately try to help otherwise
What's the 9/10 after the price?
- 9/10 of a cent
  
  New unit unlocked. The decicent.
  
  So the price of unleaded is 2.74 + 9/10 of a cent?
  Isnt that just 2.749? Why show it as a fraction?
  Sorry, I'm really confused.
  Edit: Oh, is this to accommodate other fractions like 3/4 or 7/9?
  
  Why not just 2.749?
- Yeah it's dumb. American thing only I think
- 9/10ths of a cent. It's part of the tax.
  
  It has nothing to do with tax. It’s just to make the price look one smaller. May I ask where you were taught it had anything to do with tax?
  
  art of the tax
buntu the best
Is that dollars per gallon?
- Yep
  
  Damn, that is some cheap gas.
