remove extraneous last line

| 2 hours ago | comment | added | Benjamin Wang | Technically all the numbers you used are approximations, and to get the correct bound you need to add or remove (correctly, depending on where it appears in the inequality) 0.5 times the limit of precision. Anyway you'll end up with something like 16427/1824 = 9 + 1/1824 which means the inequality is much tougher than it appears. | |
