Everyone has had the experience of buying groceries at the market. After weighing with an electronic scale, a decimal point will appear, and no one wants to worry about the decimal point. But in fact, these small coins have a lot of meaning, its just that everyone hasnt carefully investigated these decimal points. Even when the vendor says they dont want these few cents anymore, everyone still feels like theyve found something cheap. In fact, many vendors rely on these decimal points to make a fortune when weighing for everyone.
So what exactly is this decimal point? In fact, the decimal point in an electronic scale may seem like just a dot, but when it comes to money, it is very significant. For example, when weighing on an electronic scale in a market, it only displays 2 decimal points. If you are buying seafood, the price is 60 yuan per kilogram and the weight is 0.475KG. If you enter 60 yuan per kilogram on the table scale, it will display 28.50; Enter 6 yuan per thousand pounds, and the displayed price is 2.85 yuan; Inputting 0.6 per kilogram, the displayed value is 0.29, but the vendors all use decimal notation, which means its 29 yuan. This means that originally it was 28.5 yuan per kilogram, but later it went straight to 29 yuan and unknowingly earned 50 cents.
It seems that the decimal points appearing in the explosion-proof scale are still very large. However, when encountering such situations, everyone ignores them. But if this situation continues for a long time and there are more and more people, then the profits that the vendors strive for will become even greater. So, when weighing, everyone should have a clear understanding of these decimal points on the scale, so as to avoid these profits being taken by the vendor.
