Numbers !!!

Maths in real life is a tricky thing, now all mathematicians will tell you 4 is to 2 is same as 8 is to 4, which is same as 2 is to 1. Very true mathematically. But what if you make your decision just on the basis of this ? Disaster !!! Now a single toilet facility between two people is a completely different ball game (no puns intended) than from two toilets shared amongst four people. Social psychology tells us having two dissenting committe members against four others is different from one dissenting member against two. So in strategy just numbers don't help. Its better to use them with caution.
