I totally know how SmartScore works, you get more if you get it from the asker :P

Answer 20

But the point of OpenStudy *is* to offer explanation and help, and we frown on simply giving the answer outright. Especially in cases like this, where someone is formulating an explanation in pieces (like @ParthKohli ) - once the asker has the answer they usually aren't as interested in finding out the method.

So, we ask that you don't simply give an answer (@Kaederfds ) - and also, as the asker @mud116 - you can always change who you've given the medal to. In this case, I think @ParthKohli devoted more time and energy, and also wanted to make sure that you understood what he was saying (an essential part of teaching).

Thanks everyone, and just try and remember this kind of stuff going forward, cheers!
