Not sure if serious....13 became 19.... ;)  Here's my guess. .6842

  There were no realistic hints given in my examples but nice to see you guessing~! :biggrin:

 Hint:  Plus I smoke a lot more cigars than that~!  :shades:

I was giving you grief about the example having a math error.... :angel:

 I do not make math errors~~!!!

We Have A Winner!!!

  

 The  new guy Savonian has guessed the correct answer without any margin of  error~!  There were 44 bands in my car and 16 were Xiphos bands~! The  correct answer was .3636363636363636...........

 Fran95 was leading the pack previously with a single guess of .3667 which was off by only .0031

 Unfortunately  for him, he will be waiting until my return from Costa Rica to receive  his prize as I have yet to receive my promised set of sample  cigars from Nicaragua and the other two cigars from Costa Rica will be riding home with me.....

            In order for him to receive one of each of the full line (9 cigars and maybe a couple hitchhikers) it will be after March 13th before I can ship~!

 Congratulations Simo~! I will ship these as soon as i have the full line available~!

 

  Geez,,,,  this contest might cost me a small fortune in shipping charges~!  :confused:  :?:

Good contest and congrats to the winner.
I am not concerned about what you think as I can tell you don't do it often.

I used to be a people person, but then people ruined that for me.
