Cover employees from work-related accidents and illnesses with workers' compensation insurance.
Coverage that helps safeguard your business.
Workers' compensation insurance is not just a legal requirement, it's an investment in the safety and security of your employees. Without it, your business could face expensive lawsuits. Fortunately, you can help safeguard your business by providing insurance to your employees.
Required coverage in most places.
The precise rules vary from place to place, but the general rule is that your business must take out workers' compensation insurance for employees that pays out if they are injured at work. This means that should an employee be injured on the job, they may be covered. In addition, retaining skilled and experienced employees is important for any type of business, so having the proper coverage in place helps your business in the long term.
Are you about to hire your next workers' compensation claim? In an effort to get a position filled quickly, you may take shortcuts that could cost you thousands of dollars.
Prospective employees should be required to complete a pre-hire physical. A copy of the intended job description can then be given to the medical provider with the physical requirements of the position. This helps to ensure only those capable of doing the job are hired and keeps other employees safe.
Oftentimes employees don't understand the workers' compensation process and may be afraid to report a claim for fear of losing their job or impacting a daily count of injury-free days that are tied to an incentive program.
Educate employees on the workers' compensation system. During the hiring process, consider explaining how workers' compensation coverage protects your employee when an injury occurs. Your employees should understand that it is their responsibility to report an injury immediately and follow the company's guidelines for seeking medical attention. Explain your return to work policy and have your employees sign an agreement stating they understand the process.
Your employee may become injured and you might be tempted to rely on someone else to communicate with them. As a result, your employee may be confused by the workers' compensation process and unsure where to turn.
You and your supervisors need to stay in constant communication with your employees. Your insurance broker can provide some coaching and guidance throughout the process. Above all, your employees should feel that you care about their injuries and that you will be involved in helping them recover. Your direct supervisors play a key role in this process and should be trained to effectively communicate with your employees throughout the injury.
When your employees become injured, they may need time to recover. As an employer, you may be tempted to rely solely on the workers' compensation insurance company and/or your employee's medical provider to communicate throughout the process. If you do, the process can become unnecessarily prolonged.
As the employer, let your insurance company and your employee's medical provider know that you have a return to work program in place. Ask the medical provider to refer to the job description that has been provided for the injured employee. As soon as the employee is medically cleared, offer a light duty position and ask them to report to work. If needed, your employee can continue to receive treatment while they continue to recover.
Statistically, your company's Experience Modification Rate (EMR) has more than a 70% chance of being incorrect. Your EMR is a number used by insurance companies to gauge any past cost of injuries and future chances of risk. In addition, over 80% of payroll audits are done incorrectly. Both factors impact your workers' compensation coverage.
Trust your insurance advisor and have them assist and advocate during the annual payroll audit conducted by the insurance company. Your agent should also monitor all claims, but especially claims reserved over a $10,000 threshold. Larger claims should have a quarterly report prepared by your insurance agent to let you know the status of the claim. Your agent should work with your insurance company's claims adjustor to close any claims as quickly as possible.
Claims can remain open longer than needed due to poor communication between you and your employee's medical provider. As a result, you may be unaware that your employee is well enough to return to work on a modified basis.
Get to know the doctors that are helping your employee heal. Your insurance broker should foster this relationship by assisting you in the selection of the medical provider prior to a claim. Meet with the medical provider, interview them, tour their facilities, ask them to tour your location, and explain your return to work program. Job descriptions can be provided to the medical provider and an agreement of services can be achieved. Once a claim takes place, a clear line of communication should be established so you are kept aware of your employee's status.
Sometimes employees are trained to do a job well, but are not trained to do their job safely. Many work-related injuries can be avoided by effective training.
Your insurance broker should be able to organize monthly training classes. Many insurance carriers offer training tools at no charge and your broker can help you utilize these tools to your advantage. For example, topics such as proper lifting techniques can be critical for many job functions. Also, using tools like payroll stuffers can be very effective.
Many employers are concerned about their next OSHA visit. Worried about citations and fines, employers see OSHA as the enemy. Sound familiar?
OSHA's On-site Consultation Program offers free and confidential safety and occupational health advice to small and medium-sized businesses in all states across the country, with priority given to high-hazard worksites. On-site Consultation services are separate from enforcement and do not result in penalties or citations. Consultants from state agencies or universities work with employers to identify workplace hazards, provide advice on compliance with OSHA standards, and assist in establishing injury and illness prevention programs.
What does workers' compensation insurance cover?
As a business owner, knowing the risks of injury is one thing, but understanding what workers' compensation covers is equally important. In principle, payouts typically cover medical bills, care costs, and a portion of any lost wages. Plus, in the worst-case scenario, it may cover funeral costs and death benefits.
The risks you face without insurance.
There are often harsh legal penalties for businesses that don't carry workers' compensation coverage for their employees. Aside from that, this type of coverage benefits your business by helping your employees get medical treatment that helps them return to work fit and healthy.
Workers' compensation coverage above legal minimums.
Many policies go beyond the legal minimums and may also pay your legal costs if an employee sues your business over a workplace injury. This is an important safeguard to help protect your business.
What injuries are covered by workers' compensation insurance?
Injuries that occur while on the job may be covered, whether they are caused by auto accidents, natural disasters, illnesses, toxic chemical exposure, or violence in the workplace.
How much does workers' compensation insurance cost?
The costs associated with your policy may vary depending on your industry, the location of your business, and the frequency of past injuries.
Workers' compensation combines with other policies.
While you can get standalone workers' compensation policies, you can also often get coverage as an add-on to other policies. These include business owners insurance policy (BOP), general liability insurance, and professional liability insurance.

-- Excerpt from a speech delivered in 1933, by Major General Smedley Butler, USMC.
War is just a racket. A racket is best described, I believe, as something that is not what it seems to the majority of people. Only a small inside group knows what it is about. It is conducted for the benefit of the very few at the expense of the masses.
I believe in adequate defense at the coastline and nothing else. If a nation comes over here to fight, then we'll fight. The trouble with America is that when the dollar only earns 6 percent over here, then it gets restless and goes overseas to get 100 percent. Then the flag follows the dollar and the soldiers follow the flag.
I wouldn't go to war again as I have done to protect some lousy investment of the bankers. There are only two things we should fight for. One is the defense of our homes and the other is the Bill of Rights. War for any other reason is simply a racket.
There isn't a trick in the racketeering bag that the military gang is blind to. It has its "finger men" to point out enemies, its "muscle men" to destroy enemies, its "brain men" to plan war preparations, and a "Big Boss" Super-Nationalistic-Capitalism.
It may seem odd for me, a military man to adopt such a comparison. Truthfulness compels me to. I spent thirty- three years and four months in active military service as a member of this country's most agile military force, the Marine Corps. I served in all commissioned ranks from Second Lieutenant to Major-General. And during that period, I spent most of my time being a high class muscle- man for Big Business, for Wall Street and for the Bankers. In short, I was a racketeer, a gangster for capitalism.
I suspected I was just part of a racket at the time. Now I am sure of it. Like all the members of the military profession, I never had a thought of my own until I left the service. My mental faculties remained in suspended animation while I obeyed the orders of higher-ups. This is typical with everyone in the military service.
I helped make Mexico, especially Tampico, safe for American oil interests in 1914. I helped make Haiti and Cuba a decent place for the National City Bank boys to collect revenues in. I helped in the raping of half a dozen Central American republics for the benefits of Wall Street. The record of racketeering is long. I helped purify Nicaragua for the international banking house of Brown Brothers in 1909-1912 (where have I heard that name before?). I brought light to the Dominican Republic for American sugar interests in 1916. In China I helped to see to it that Standard Oil went its way unmolested.
During those years, I had, as the boys in the back room would say, a swell racket. Looking back on it, I feel that I could have given Al Capone a few hints. The best he could do was to operate his racket in three districts. I operated on three continents.

What is Machine Learning?
Machine learning is a popular application of artificial intelligence where a system gets the ability to learn automatically and improve from its experiences without being programmed explicitly. It focuses on developing computer programs that have access to data and can use that data to recognize patterns and improve on their own.
The process of machine learning begins with an observation that includes some instruction or experience. This data is then followed by a pattern to make informed decisions in the future based on the guidelines provided.
The primary goal of machine learning is to train computers in a way that they can learn automatically without any human intervention and adjust their actions accordingly.
Why Machine Learning is Important
Data is an essential block of almost all businesses. Data-driven decisions make all the difference between keeping up with the competition or falling behind.
Machine learning is the key for companies to unlock the value of customer data and make enacting decisions to stay at the top of their game. It has made it possible to automatically produce quick models that can analyze big as well as complex data and deliver fast as well as accurate results even if they are on a vast scale.
Different Types of Machine Learning
Machine learning algorithms are usually classified as supervised or unsupervised:
Supervised Machine Learning Algorithms
Supervised learning refers to a class of problem that uses a model to draw mapping between input data and the target variable. In this approach, you teach machines by example. During training, the machines are exposed to a broad set of labeled data and are trained to predict the outcome of future events.
For example, Facebook recently announced that it had 3.5 billion public images available on Instagram with hashtags used as labels. These billions of photos with labels attached to them are then trained using image-recognition and yield record levels of accuracy.
Unsupervised Machine Learning Algorithms
Unsupervised algorithms are designed to group similar data or anomalies that stand out in data. Their purpose is to identify patterns and spot the similarities that can split data into different categories. One of the famous examples of an unsupervised learning algorithm is Airbnb, where you create a cluster of accommodations that are available for rent. Another example is Google News, where similar stories are grouped each day.
Semi-Supervised Machine Learning Algorithms
As the name suggests, this algorithm is the mix of supervised and unsupervised learning. This technique uses a small amount of labeled data and a large amount of unlabeled data to train machines. Firstly, the labeled data partially train a machine learning model, and then this partially trained model labels all the unlabeled data. This process is called pseudo-labeling. Due to the rise in semi-supervised algorithms, the importance of labeled data for training machine systems is decreasing over time.
Reinforcement Machine Learning Algorithms
A reinforced machine learning algorithm is based on the trial and error search. In this method, the machines interact with the environment by producing actions and discover their rewards or errors. You can understand the reinforcement algorithm by thinking of a person who is trying to play a new game but is not familiar with the rules.
Eventually, by pressing different buttons and seeing what happens on the screen, his performance gets better. The same process is used in reinforcement learning. Trial, error, and reward are the essential characteristics of this machine learning algorithm.

Proper Lifting Techniques
The Squat Lift – Ideally, objects should be lifted via the squat lift. With the back relatively straight, the knees are bent so that low back stress is minimized. While this does not seem as easy or natural as simply bending forward at the waist it significantly minimizes the lower spinal stress which can lead to numerous injuries including intervertebral disc herniation. Also, keep the feet wide apart when lifting the object and be sure to keep the object as close to your body as possible.
When Bending The Knees Is Difficult – For individuals who cannot fully bend the knees in order to pick up objects some bending of the spine may be necessary. In these cases, be sure the object being lifting is not heavy and most importantly, be sure to keep the object as close to the body as possible. The farther the object is away from the body the greater the stress on the spine.
The Golden Rule of Lifting – As stated above, be sure to keep objects as close to the body as possible during the lifting and carrying of objects.
Repetitive and Heavy Lifting – Even when proper lifting techniques are used repetitive stress injuries to the spine will occur if objects are too heavy or lifting is done continuously to the point that the spinal musculature becomes fatigued. Never lift heavy objects alone – get assistance or use a dolly. Never lifting continuously to the point that spinal muscles become fatigued. This will dramatically increase the odds of sustaining spinal injury.

A prescription foot orthosis is an in-shoe brace which is designed to correct for abnormal foot and lower extremity function (the lower extremity includes the foot, ankle, leg, knee, thigh and hip). In correcting abnormal foot and lower extremity function, the prescription foot orthosis reduces the strain on injured structures in the foot and lower extremity, allowing them to heal and become non-painful. In addition, prescription foot orthoses help prevent future problems from occurring in the foot and lower extremity by reducing abnormal or pathological forces acting on the foot and lower extremity. A prescription foot orthosis is more commonly known by the public as a "foot orthotic".
Podiatrists prescribe two main types of prescription foot orthoses for their patients, accommodative orthoses and functional foot orthoses. Both types of prescription foot orthoses are used to correct the foot plant of the patient so that the pain in their foot or lower extremity will improve so that normal activities can be resumed without pain. However, accommodative and functional foot orthoses are generally made using different materials and may not look or feel the same. Both types of prescription foot orthoses are nearly always prescribed as a pair to allow more normal function of both feet [similar to having both the left and right wheels of a car realigned in a front end alignment].
Accommodative Foot Orthoses
Accommodative foot orthoses are used to cushion, pad or relieve pressure from a painful or injured area on the bottom of the foot. They may also be designed to try to control abnormal function of the foot. Accommodative orthoses may be made of a wide range of materials such as cork, leather, plastic foams, and rubber materials. They are generally more flexible and soft than functional foot orthoses. Accommodative orthoses are fabricated from a three dimensional model of the foot which may be made by taking a plaster mold of the foot, stepping into a box of compressible foam, or scanning the foot with a mechanical or optical scanner.
Accommodative orthoses are useful in the treatment of painful calluses on the bottom of the foot, diabetic foot ulcerations, sore bones on the bottom of the foot and other types of foot pathology. The advantages of accommodative orthoses are that they are relatively soft and forgiving and are generally easy to adjust in shape after they are dispensed to the patient to improve comfort. The disadvantages of accommodative orthoses are that they are relatively bulky, have relatively poor durability, and often need frequent adjustments to allow them to continue working properly.
Functional Foot Orthoses
Functional foot orthoses are used to correct abnormal foot function and, in so doing, also correct for abnormal lower extremity function. Some types of functional foot orthoses may also be designed to accommodate painful areas on the bottoms of the foot, just like accommodative foot orthoses. Functional foot orthoses may be made of flexible, semi-rigid or rigid plastic or graphite materials. They are relatively thin and easily fit into most types of shoes. They are fabricated from a three dimensional model of the foot which may be made by taking a plaster mold of the foot, stepping into a box of compressible foam, or scanning the foot with a mechanical or optical scanner.
Functional foot orthoses are useful in the treatment of a very wide range of painful conditions of the foot and lower extremities. Big toe joint and lesser toe joint pain, arch and instep pain, ankle pain and heel pain are commonly treated with functional foot orthoses. Since abnormal foot function causes abnormal leg, knee and hip function, then functional foot orthoses are commonly also used to treat painful tendonitis and bursitis conditions in the ankle, knee and hip, in addition to shin splints in the legs. The advantages of functional foot orthoses are that they are relatively durable, infrequently require adjustments and more likely to fit into standard shoes. The disadvantages are that they are relatively difficult to adjust and relatively firm and less cushiony.
Foot and Lower Extremity Biomechanics
The study of the mechanical nature of the foot and lower extremity is called biomechanics. It is a specialized branch of science that uses the mechanical principles of physics to study the motions and forces on the human body. Podiatrists receive specialized, in-depth training during their four years of medical training on how the movements and forces in the foot affect the movements and forces in the rest of the lower extremity, and how the movements and forces in the lower extremity affect the movements and forces in the foot. No other medical specialty has this in-depth training, which is necessary to understand lower extremity pathology as it relates to the biomechanics of foot function. Therefore, the podiatrist is the most qualified medical specialist to diagnose and treat foot pathology.
Understanding the biomechanics of the foot and lower extremity is of critical importance when the mechanism of an injury must be determined to decide on a appropriate treatment plan for the patient. In addition, biomechanics plays an important part in the planning for corrective surgery for injuries, such as tendon ruptures or bone fractures, or for the surgical correction of deformities of the foot, such as hammertoes, bunions, or heel spurs. As a result of the podiatrist's training and expertise in biomechanics, they will often prescribe either functional or accommodative orthoses as part of their treatment plan. In many instances, an orthosis will be all that is required for the successful treatment of foot or lower extremity pathology. In most instances, however, an orthosis will be prescribed along with other therapies, such as stretching or strengthening exercises, oral or injectable medications, and specific types of shoes, in order to insure the fastest healing for the patient.
The Process of Prescribing Foot Orthoses
In order to design and fabricate a prescription foot orthosis, the podiatrist must perform a biomechanical examination of the foot and lower extremities. Angular measurements are taken of the toes, foot, ankle, knees and hip to determine the amount and level of any structural or functional deformities. This examination is done while the patient is on an examining table and also while standing. The podiatrist will also do a walking and/or running gait analysis of the patient to determine how their foot and lower extremity functions during these activities. Abnormalities from the biomechanical examination and gait examination are noted in the patient's chart for future consideration in the design and fabrication of the prescription foot orthosis.
The podiatrist then next must make a three dimensional model of the patient's feet in order to make a prescription foot orthosis. This is done by either applying plaster splints to the patient's foot, by having the patient step into a box of compressible foam, or having the foot scanned by a mechanical or optical scanner. The resultant three-dimensional model of the foot is then used along with a detailed orthosis prescription from the podiatrist to have the prescription foot orthoses made for the patient. Most podiatrists have a specialty podiatric orthosis laboratory make their orthoses while some podiatrists make their own prescription foot orthoses.
Advantages and Disadvantages of Prescription Foot Orthoses
The advantages of prescription foot orthoses are many. First of all, they are custom made for each foot of each patient, so that each foot orthosis will only fit one foot correctly. In addition, since they fit so exactly to the persons foot, they can be made with relatively rigid, durable materials with a minimal chance of discomfort or irritation to the patients foot. Prescription foot orthoses also have a much greater potential to effectively and permanently treat painful conditions, all the way from the toes to the lower back, since they are designed specifically for an individual's biomechanical nature.
For example, in children, prescription foot orthoses are used to prevent abnormal development of the foot due to flatfoot or intoeing or outtoeing disorders. In athletes, prescription foot orthoses are used to allow the athlete to continue training and competing without pain. And in most adult patients, prescription foot orthoses are used to allow more normal daily activities without pain or disability.
One disadvantage to prescription foot orthoses is that they are relatively expensive when compared to store bought over-the-counter foot inserts. Even though the over-the-counter inserts do help some people with mild symptoms, they do not have the potential to correct the wide range of symptoms that prescription foot orthoses can since they are made to fit a person with an "average" foot shape.
In this fashion, prescription foot orthoses may be considered to be analogous to prescription eyeglasses. Over-the-counter eyeglasses may work for some people since they are made to correct for the average eye. However, over-the-counter eyeglasses will almost never work as well as prescription eyeglasses. Prescription foot orthoses, since they are custom made to each foot of a patient, are almost always more corrective and comfortable than over-the-counter foot inserts, even though over-the-counter inserts do work for some people.

A response and reply to the notes on 2 Samuel 18 in the Skeptic's Annotated Bible (SAB).
King James Version
SAB comment
My comment
1 And David numbered the people that were with him, and set captains of thousands and captains of hundreds over them.
2 And David sent forth a third part of the people under the hand of Joab, and a third part under the hand of Abishai the son of Zeruiah, Joab's brother, and a third part under the hand of Ittai the Gittite. And the king said unto the people, I will surely go forth with you myself also.
3 But the people answered, Thou shalt not go forth: for if we flee away, they will not care for us; neither if half of us die, will they care for us: but now thou art worth ten thousand of us: therefore now it is better that thou succour us out of the city.
4 And the king said unto them, What seemeth you best I will do. And the king stood by the gate side, and all the people came out by hundreds and by thousands.
5 And the king commanded Joab and Abishai and Ittai, saying, Deal gently for my sake with the young man, even with Absalom. And all the people heard when the king gave all the captains charge concerning Absalom.
6 So the people went out into the field against Israel: and the battle was in the wood of Ephraim;
7 Where the people of Israel were slain before the servants of David, and there was there a great slaughter that day of twenty thousand men.
8 For the battle was there scattered over the face of all the country: and the wood devoured more people that day than the sword devoured.
9 And Absalom met the servants of David. And Absalom rode upon a mule, and the mule went under the thick boughs of a great oak, and his head caught hold of the oak, and he was taken up between the heaven and the earth; and the mule that was under him went away.
10 And a certain man saw it, and told Joab, and said, Behold, I saw Absalom hanged in an oak.
11 And Joab said unto the man that told him, And, behold, thou sawest him, and why didst thou not smite him there to the ground? and I would have given thee ten shekels of silver, and a girdle.
12 And the man said unto Joab, Though I should receive a thousand shekels of silver in mine hand, yet would I not put forth mine hand against the king's son: for in our hearing the king charged thee and Abishai and Ittai, saying, Beware that none touch the young man Absalom.
13 Otherwise I should have wrought falsehood against mine own life: for there is no matter hid from the king, and thou thyself wouldest have set thyself against me.
14 Then said Joab, I may not tarry thus with thee. And he took three darts in his hand, and thrust them through the heart of Absalom, while he was yet alive in the midst of the oak.
15 And ten young men that bare Joab's armour compassed about and smote Absalom, and slew him.
16 And Joab blew the trumpet, and the people returned from pursuing after Israel: for Joab held back the people.
17 And they took Absalom, and cast him into a great pit in the wood, and laid a very great heap of stones upon him: and all Israel fled every one to his tent.
18 Now Absalom in his lifetime had taken and reared up for himself a pillar, which is in the king's dale: for he said, I have no son to keep my name in remembrance: and he called the pillar after his own name: and it is called unto this day, Absalom's place.
19 Then said Ahimaaz the son of Zadok, Let me now run, and bear the king tidings, how that the LORD hath avenged him of his enemies.
20 And Joab said unto him, Thou shalt not bear tidings this day, but thou shalt bear tidings another day: but this day thou shalt bear no tidings, because the king's son is dead.
21 Then said Joab to Cushi, Go tell the king what thou hast seen. And Cushi bowed himself unto Joab, and ran.
22 Then said Ahimaaz the son of Zadok yet again to Joab, But howsoever, let me, I pray thee, also run after Cushi. And Joab said, Wherefore wilt thou run, my son, seeing that thou hast no tidings ready?
23 But howsoever, said he, let me run. And he said unto him, Run. Then Ahimaaz ran by the way of the plain, and overran Cushi.
24 And David sat between the two gates: and the watchman went up to the roof over the gate unto the wall, and lifted up his eyes, and looked, and behold a man running alone.
25 And the watchman cried, and told the king. And the king said, If he be alone, there is tidings in his mouth. And he came apace, and drew near.
26 And the watchman saw another man running: and the watchman called unto the porter, and said, Behold another man running alone. And the king said, He also bringeth tidings.
27 And the watchman said, Me thinketh the running of the foremost is like the running of Ahimaaz the son of Zadok. And the king said, He is a good man, and cometh with good tidings.
28 And Ahimaaz called, and said unto the king, All is well. And he fell down to the earth upon his face before the king, and said, Blessed be the LORD thy God, which hath delivered up the men that lifted up their hand against my lord the king.
29 And the king said, Is the young man Absalom safe? And Ahimaaz answered, When Joab sent the king's servant, and me thy servant, I saw a great tumult, but I knew not what it was.
30 And the king said unto him, Turn aside, and stand here. And he turned aside, and stood still.
31 And, behold, Cushi came; and Cushi said, Tidings, my lord the king: for the LORD hath avenged thee this day of all them that rose up against thee.
32 And the king said unto Cushi, Is the young man Absalom safe? And Cushi answered, The enemies of my lord the king, and all that rise against thee to do thee hurt, be as that young man is.
33 And the king was much moved, and went up to the chamber over the gate, and wept: and as he went, thus he said, O my son Absalom, my son, my son Absalom! would God I had died for thee, O Absalom, my son, my son!

Calculating the fraction of a whole number is a very useful skill to learn that helps students to understand the nature of numbers and their interactions. In this article, we'll explain how to calculate 1/2 of 75 with step-by-step-examples.
Looking for fractions of whole number worksheets? Click here to see all of our free fraction of a number worksheets.
Calculating the Answer as a Number
The simple rule to remember whenever you want to find a fraction of an amount is to divide the amount by the fraction's denominator, and then multiply that answer by the fraction. Using this rule, you'll be able to work out the fractional amount of the original number. Let's work it out together.
First we take the amount, 75, and divide it by the denominator, 2:
Next, we take the answer, 37.5, and multiply it by the numerator, 1:
As you can see, the answer to the question "what is 1/2 of 75?" as a number is 37.5.
Increase or Decrease an Amount by a Fraction
What if you wanted to increase or decrease 75 by 1/2? Once you have calculated the answer above, 37.5, you deduct that amount from the whole number to decrease it by 1/2 and you add it to increase:
Increase = 75 + 37.5 = 112.5
Decrease = 75 - 37.5 = 37.5
Calculating the Answer as a Fraction
Sometimes, you might want to show your answer as another fraction. In that case, we can do the following.
First, we take the whole number and turn it into a fraction by using 1 as the fraction denominator:
Now that we have two fractions, we can multiply the numerators and denominators together to get our answer in fraction form:
Now you might have noticed that the fraction we have has a numerator that is larger than the denominator. This is called a mixed or improper fraction and means that there is a whole number involved. We can simplify this down to a mixed number.
We'll put together a blog post on converting improper fractions to a mixed number to explain those steps in more detail, but for the purposes of this article, we'll go ahead and just give you the mixed number answer:
37 1/2
Hopefully this article helps you to understand how you can work with fractions of whole numbers and work this out quickly for yourself whenever you need it.
Practice Fraction of Number Worksheets
Like most math problems, finding the fraction of a number is something that will get much easier for you the more you practice the problems and the more you practice, the more you understand.
Whether you are a student, a parent, or a teacher, you can create your own fractions of a whole number worksheets using our fraction of a number worksheet generator. This completely free tool will let you create completely randomized, differentiated, fraction of a number problems to help you with your learning and understanding of fractions.
Practice Fractions of a Number Using Examples
If you want to continue learning about how to calculate the fraction of a whole number, take a look at the quick calculations and random calculations in the sidebar to the right of this blog post.
We have listed some of the most common fractions in the quick calculation section, and a selection of completely random fractions as well, to help you work through a number of problems.
Each article will show you, step-by-step, how to work out the fraction of any whole number and will help students to really learn and understand this process.
Calculate Another Fraction of a Number
Enter your fraction in the A and B boxes, and your whole number in the C box below and click "Calculate" to calculate the fraction of the number.

Skype Improves Functionality on User Experience Chat Syncing History
For frequent users of Skype the user experience on a smartphone and desktop are not always the same, particularly when following up on past chat messages as there was no functionality to be able to sync chat history between the two technology platforms. As a result, users always felt this shortcoming was quite inconvenient, where chat messaging was not syncing between different devices and desktops despite being the same application logs. Another working inconvenience for mobile users experience is that if a user has many contacts it can take quite a long time updating previous alerts and old chat messages to appear at the point where the user last logged in into the software application platform. Furthermore, it may take quite many minutes even before the application becomes operational from the latest updated content and communications, of which depending when a user last logged in all the history has to occur in a repetitive manner and in some cases the date and history log

This visualization uses WebGL, which is a relatively new technology and is only supported by modern browsers. Furthermore, it uses hardware acceleration provided by the graphics card in your PC, so you need to have a reasonably good graphics card or the display will update only slowly. You can get an idea of the speed from the frames/s value which indicates how many times per second the display is refreshed. We artificially limit this to 30 fps, as this is perfectly adequate for this type of display.
If you cannot see the display at all, make sure WebGL is enabled on your browser, and make sure your browser is up-to-date. Internet Explorer users should make sure they have version 11 or higher. For iPad/iPhone users, please make sure you have iOS version 8 or higher, because WebGL does not seem to be supported on earlier versions.

We Would Like To Help You Attract New Clients While Simultaneously Helping Your Current Clients Dramatically Increase Their Revenue and Profits... And Let YOU Take All The Credit!
The most successful accounting practices we deal with have two major objectives. First, help their clients grow and build successful businesses... and second, continuously attract new clients to their accounting practice.
If this sounds like you then we would like to help you with both of those objectives... in exchange for your help with an exclusive new programme we're launching for small business owners around the country.
My company specialises in helping businesses increase their revenue and profits exponentially. In working with hundreds of small business owners, we've discovered 8 areas that are continuously neglected and generally overlooked by most businesses. By applying specific business growth strategies to these 8 areas, we can find more than £100,000 in additional revenue for ANY business... no matter what they do.
And we can find them this additional revenue in less than 45 minutes... guaranteed!
There is absolutely NO charge for us to do this for your clients.
But we do ask for one thing in return for our services. We want to be able to document the actual results we produce for each specific business... and use it as a documented case study moving forward. This allows us to leverage those financial results when speaking with other business owners... and those results will enable us to sign up new clients for our company.
There will be NO sales pitch made during these meetings with your clients, and there is absolutely NOTHING they have to buy.
There are 2 major advantages in this for you:
First, we want you to take the credit for arranging these meetings and subsequent financial breakthroughs.
Second, you may offer this same service as a compelling offer to bring in NEW accounting clients cost-free.
You can contact all of your local small business owners and let them know that you're sponsoring a "local initiative" to help the entire local small business community.
Call this initiative the £100k Project.
When ANY small business owner agrees to use your accounting services, you will arrange for a top marketing strategist to contact them and find them more than £100,000 in additional annual revenue. Let them know you're covering the entire cost of this programme on behalf of the local small business community.
Imagine being able to offer £100,000 of new found profits to local small businesses!
This initiative will skyrocket your lead generation efforts... position your accounting services as a no-brainer decision... and generate a ton of free publicity and reciprocity for you and your practice.
Your local media will eat this initiative alive with free coverage and publicity.
I hope you will consider working together to help the small business owners in your local community. If you would like to discuss our offer, or simply obtain additional information... just click the button below and we'll schedule a time to speak one-to-one.

Porcelain Vs Ceramic Tile
Whether ceramic or porcelain, manufactured tiles are a mixture of clays that are shaped and fired at high temperatures. Natural stone tiles, like slate, granite, or travertine, are quarried products—but many ceramic and porcelain tiles mimic the look of stone very realistically. They create beautiful floors for much less than the cost of stone. If you're wondering which to choose, here's a summary of ceramic and porcelain key points:

LOUISVILLE, Ky. – Barely able to tie his shoes three days ago, Tiger Woods is ready to tee it up in the PGA Championship.
Woods caused the biggest sensation of the week Wednesday afternoon simply by driving his silver SUV into the parking lot at Valhalla. He has never arrived so late for a major championship and had so little time to prepare – just nine holes at Valhalla, which he had not seen since winning the PGA Championship in 2000.
But at least he's playing.
That much was in doubt Sunday when he withdrew from the final round of the Bridgestone Invitational because of back pain that made it a chore to switch out of his golf shoes. Woods said he suffered a pinched nerve, but that it was not at all related to back surgery he had March 31 that kept him out of golf for three months.
He said his trainer adjusted the area above the sacrum.
"Once he put it back in, the spasms went away," he said. "And from there, I started getting some range of motion."
The latest injury occurred when Woods tried to play a shot from just above a deep bunker on the second hole at Firestone, and his momentum caused him to land hard in the sand. He kept playing, and hit some horrific shots before deciding to withdraw after a tee shot on the ninth hole.
That was only his third tournament since his return from surgery, leading to concern that he might be done for the year.
"It was a different pain than what I had been experiencing," Woods said. "So I knew it wasn't the site of the surgery. It was different and obviously it just the sacrum."
His arrival put some life into what had been an ordinary week. Dozens of cameras captured Woods putting on his shoes with ease at his car. He got a big cheer just walking onto the practice range and the crowd was six-deep down the first hole, about like it was for the Ryder Cup at Valhalla six years ago.
In the nine holes he played with Steve Stricker, Davis Love III and Harris English, Woods looked the same as he did last week.
He drilled his driver down the first fairway. He badly pulled his tee shot on the third hole. It was a mixture of good and bad, about what can be expected from someone who has played only nine tournament rounds in the last five months.
"Nothing great," Woods said. "It's only Wednesday."
Woods tees off Thursday alongside Phil Mickelson and Padraig Harrington. He simply said, "Yes," when asked if he expected to win, which seemed to be a tall order considering his return from surgery. Woods missed the cut by four shots at the Quicken Loans National, had his worst 72-hole finish in a major at the British Open and was in the middle of the pack at Firestone when he withdrew.
Barring a victory, this likely will be his last tournament for at least six weeks.
Woods is not eligible for the FedEx Cup playoffs, and he hasn't given U.S. captain Tom Watson much reason to pick him for the Ryder Cup. Woods said he would have to "play well" to give reason for Watson to take him.
"That's the only thing I can control," Woods said. "Try to go out there and win this event. That's all I'm focused on."
Watson has said he wanted Woods on the team if he was healthy and playing well. About the time Woods arrived at the course, Watson was successfully dodging questions about his chances of making the team.
"It's speculation what's going to happen," Watson said. "I can't tell you what's going to happen with Tiger."
The excitement over his arrival was sure to be tempered by the reality of the task ahead. Not only has Woods gone more than a year without winning – and six years since he last won a major – Rory McIlroy has replaced him as the overwhelming favorite. McIlroy went wire-to-wire at the British Open, then rallied from a three-shot deficit to win the World Golf Championship at Firestone.
Sergio Garcia was a runner-up both times. Garcia, who went 0-3 playing in the final group with Woods at three majors, was asked about similarities between the two.
"When they are both at their best, to me it seems like Rory is less afraid of hitting driver," he said. "And when he's hitting it as well as he's hitting it now, he's hitting it very far and quite straight. So it's a little bit of an advantage at that point."
Woods might have lost his advantage from being a past champion at Valhalla. He missed the Ryder Cup in 2008 while recovering from knee surgery, and course architect Jack Nicklaus has made plenty of changes, particularly on some of the greens. Woods spent much of his time chipping from collection areas that weren't around 14 years ago.
"It's a totally different golf course than what I played in 2000," he said. "The greens are all different. I have my book from 2000 – it's useless. There's some new things that we have to learn out there."
With that, he headed to the back nine to walk the remainder of the course with his putter. He had 15 hours before teeing off in the final major of the year.

Your credit history is based on information sent to the two major credit reporting agencies in Canada Equifax and TransUnion from companies who have extended credit to you.
Your credit score is used by lenders to help them establish whether or not you're a credit risk and to mitigate losses due to bad debt. The credit reporting agencies use a statistical formula that translates your information into a 3 digit score between 300 and 900. Higher scores are considered better scores. The higher the score, the more favourably lenders look upon you as a credit risk.
Each lender has different criteria which are considered in determining whether they will lend you money. Some lenders require a minimum credit score to extend credit and other lenders link your mortgage rate to your credit score depending on their perceived risk.
The credit scoring model is always changing. Our mortgage professionals stay on top of emerging trends on the credit scoring scene so that we can continue to provide correct advice and the best possible service to our clients.
Factors that can impact your credit score include:
Your credit report contains information about your past and present personal and financial situation.
It's important to begin building a credit history as early as possible. You can begin to build one by applying for — and responsibly using — a credit card. Your financial institution or mortgage professional can help.
Demonstrating your ability to manage credit is key to maintaining a good credit score. There are a number of things you can do to improve your credit score. These include:
Once your credit score has improved, work with your mortgage professional to obtain a mortgage that works for you.

The news that the nation's jobless rate fell to 7.8 percent in September from 8.1 percent in August immediately led some of President Obama's critics to charge the the books had been cooked to help his reelection campaign.
"Unbelievable jobs numbers," tweeted former General Electric CEO Jack Welch. "These Chicago guys [the Obama campaign] will do anything ... can't debate so change numbers."
On CNBC, Tea Party favorite Rick Santelli declared that " I told you they'd get it under 8 percent — they did!"
Conservative commentator Monica Crowley tweeted about an "October surprise: 43 consecutive months of above 8% unemployment, & 1 month before election, the rate miraculously drops to 7.8%. Ahem."
Labor Secretary Hilda Solis has had a chance to respond to such talk: "I'm insulted when I hear that, because we have a very professional civil service," she said on CNBC. "I have the highest regard for our professionals that do the calculations at the (Bureau of Labor Statistics). They are trained economists."
At another point she called the charges "ludicrous."
Our colleagues at Planet Money have previously reported about the lengths BLS goes to in an effort to keep its work secret and away from outside influence.
This isn't the last jobs report before the Nov. 6 election. October's figures are due on Nov. 2. Watch for more fireworks then.
