addition and subtraction don't work the same as multiplication and division.
12/2*3
LtoR = 18
RtoL = 2
- if you did math correctly, it does. You're implying that LtoR the 3 is a whole number, but RtoL it's a fraction. Those aren't the same equations. In other words, you're saying:
12/2 *3 =18
Then
1/3 * 12/2 = 2

12/2*3
LtoR = 18
RtoL = 2
12*(1/2)*3 = 6*3 = 18
3*(1/2)*12 = (3/2)*12 = 18
