thought so. it seems more like a math problem than a coding one. once you have a formula the language you use is a bit redundant

mmhmm Yeah that what I am trying to say. It wont be hard to code at all. The hard part is coming up with the algebra. thus more of a math problem. I get it. it is a cool challenge. But not really a coding one imho

@jay, i want a formula found and then a code so the user wont have to do math or plug things in other than the house size, let the code do all the math
