would any of you guys happen to know the meaning of this quote "believe those who are seaking the truth; doubt those who find it"?

This is easy really. First you have to break the quote down because it's in two parts separated by a semicolon.

"Believe those who are seeking the truth" That makes sense, doesn't it? If someone is seeking the truth, then he is admitting that he doesn't know everything and that he is working toward a goal. I would find a person believable if he was honest in this manner.

"Doubt those who find it" Obviously the "it" also refers to the truth. If a person claims to know the truth, why would you doubt him? Well, don't you tend to doubt a person who thinks he knows everything and who thinks he knows more than you do? Essentially, a person who is too full of his own convictions is likely to be full of little else.

So what is the conclusion from the combination of these two halves? I'm sure you can come up with the rest of the answer from here.

I hope someone can help you. I'm useless at science stuff. Sorry.

I feel stupid for asking this but my mind just went blank...

how would I find 3 percent of 270 million?
I flew by everything else (math is my best) and my mind just shut off on the last question...

please help?

The only stupid questions are the ones we never ask.

I'm no math whiz but this is what I would do: Multiply by .03

I was figuring that 3% the same way I'd figure taxes at my friend's antiques shop so I'm pretty sure my method would get the right answer.

^ yeah your right you just multiply by .03. the answer should be 8,100,000.

Um well actually its the other way round, you multiply 270 million by 3 and devide it by 100.

its like a fraction, 3/100=x/270,000,000
And you cross multiply to get the value of X.

I will hope that you are joking about this. Cheating doesn't help anyone.
