I guess you're right, most people avoid math whenever they can, even if it's just a single simple division. I can't imagine not having a rough idea of how much you're paying though.
I mean, I have a very approximate idea about how much I pay, and an approximate idea about how much I make, but it's not exactly easy to approximate a percentage based on that, you know. Unless you're the freaking rain man or something.
