Is "10 times less" good grammar?

one tenth is probably best in that situation, but it's a weird question to ask on a saturday night...

Assuming that by "two digit number" it excludes numbers with preceding zero like 05, 06, etc...and also assuming that the number is not negative (probly not in the 3rd grade), then since 10 is the smallest two-digit number on the number line, the product of 10 times 10 (lowest 2-digit number) is 100. (10x10=100)

question is written in bad grammar, and they are not

Yes, that is correct... however it's spelled 'grammar'.. not 'grammer' :)

I HATE it when they omit the comma.  It makes me confused.  I start to wonder if the last two items are more closely related than the other items.  But every time I try to argue about this to somebody, they tell me to stop being so stuck up about grammar when my own isn't so good.  So I just keep quiet and ignore it.

C. Intensify is to abate.\n\nto make worse is to lessen the problem.

Yes, 22 and 23 are correct.\n\nIn 24, I'm not sure what is underlined.  In A, B, and D, the "but" and "for" are conjunctions.  In C, "for" is a preposition.\n\n25 is B.  "quickly" modifies "hid."

Regarding is best - always use the least amount of words.  The plural versions seem clumsy\n\nTry the Chicago Manual of Style.

Amen. I would not mind better grammar too, but everyone has shortcomings. Mine is math.

it should be less than 20 words

I don't understand "readability" either, but I could point out that I would replace "to the power of " with the uppercase character on your 6 key, the "^". So 4.06 x 10^5 is the way I'd do it.

Its easier to read with commas.  Try 1,200,000 or 1 million 2 hundred thousand.

Seven-tenths (7/10), can not be simplified into a lesser fraction. It is already simplified.

Helps if you have good grammar..you don't.

0.5 is technically five tenths, so it is plural - you have five tenths of something. However, 5/10 simplifies of course to "one half" which is singular, so it's all a matter of perspective. Strictly speaking, however, it is definitely plural when specified as 0.5.

It needs to be below 10%.

It drives me nuts.  The use of proper grammar shows intellect, thoughtfulness and the clear-headed ability to communicate effectively.  It also shows that someone is not lazy with the language.  When I am reading profiles of women on online dating sites, their ability to use proper grammar, punctuation, etc. is my first selection point.\n\nI only condone improper grammar from Ali G., who is a very bright, Cambridge-educated guy who pretends to speak like a buffoon - and is hysterically funny!
