Probably a dumb question but...

I am not very mathematical at all, I think the highest I went was like Algebra 1/2 or whatever in Highschool. But my question is what kind of math equation would I do If I was buying Bitcoin from LocalBitcoins and say I needed $160 for a sheet of acid. How do I figure out with the sellers markup and all that how much cash I would need to put down to buy the right amount of coin to get to where I was pretty close, at least within like 5 bucks? I hope Im explaining this right, but I have been trying to figure this out for awhile now.

You type "165" into the "$" box, press the tab key on your keyboard and the bitcoin box autofills.

Check HOW MANY BITCOIN the item you want to buy costs, then buy a little bit more bitcoin than that. Check the cost by typing that amount of btc into the "btc" box of a trader. The $ box will tell you how much you would need to pay him.

Why don't you just have the prices set in USD? Then just google how much BTC that is.

I usually buy about 10% more bitcoin than the item actually costs, just in case.

Google bitcoin price, a calculator appears at the top of results. Type in the dollar amount, it calculates the btc.

check the price of the product on the marketplace in btc and dont forget to add the tax. then buy more btc than you need.
