A professor of mathematics sent a fax to his wife. It read:
"Dear wife, You must realize that you are 54 years old and I have certain needs which you are no longer able to satisfy. I am otherwise happy with you as a wife, and I sincerely hope you will not be hurt or offended to learn that by the time you receive this letter, I will be at the Grand Hotel with my 18-year-old teaching assistant. I'll be home before midnight. - Your Husband"
When he arrived at the hotel, there was a faxed letter waiting for him that read as follows:
"Dear Husband. You too are 54 years old, and by the time you receive this, I will be at the Breakwater Hotel with the 18-year-old pool boy. Being the brilliant mathematician that you are, you can easily appreciate the fact that 18 goes into 54 a lot more times than 54 goes into 18. Don't wait up."

A bigger number (54) can constitute a smaller number (18) three times but 54 cannot be contained in 18. It is a larger number.

3times 18 is 54 and so 18 goes into 54 three times
0 times

a nice joke...but i think (54 / 18) = 3...i.e 18 goes into 54 -3 times...
where as (18/54) = 0.33 i.e 54 goes into 18 only 0.33 times...

Its holding h is an unknown decision which even as divided by 5 will equivalent -4. So what you want to do is slightly bit cancellation on one fringe of the equation to go away you with only h. generally even as cancelling a branch you multiply. yet be positive to attempt this on both fringe of the equation.
