Oh gosh, 72 is way more anti-prime, I've always just used the rule of 70 in my head though. if I have a calculator handy, I'll use [(69.3/rate) + 0.3] as that'

Oh gosh, 72 is way more anti-prime, I've always just used the rule of 70 in my head though.
if I have a calculator handy, I'll use [(69.3/rate) + 0.3] as that's really close to the actual numbers for rates under about 10 or so.
I'm curious as to what other methods people use.
Honestly, I should probably just memorize the 12 or so numbers.
For those interested, here's a mnemonic that I cooked up quick with chatGPT:
70 bears ate 35 lions who ate 23 tigers who ate 18 wolves who ate 14 dogs who ate 12 cats who quickly ate 10, 9, 8, 7 mice who ate 6.6 grasshoppers who ate 6.1 barleycorns
Look, I know this is not the best, but hey, it's Friday. Please help me out and make up a better one.
70, 35, 23, 18, 14, 12, 10, 9, 8, 7, 6.6, 6.1
