I think I saw a question like this in our last review session, and I chose .35 then. I hope that's right!

I feel like the answer might be around .30, but I can't remember if I should round or not.

I think the total number of fasteners is key here. If I recall correctly, we need to divide the number of 1/2 inch bolts by the total count.
