Each workshop can build 1/3 of a workshop or 1/6 of a biofarm per turn.
**Cost in turns (t) to build  biofarms (b) with workshops (w): t=b/(w/3)........=> t=3b/w
Anyways, I got rid of variables by making things relative.
It applies like this: If I had 400 segs, 18%  (72) of which were workshops, and I grew by 60% and built only biofarms, it'd cost me 10 turns.
-----anyways, if you see the problem (barbarism) in that way of looking at stuff, the 18% of a number that grew by 60% anyways... heres the better graphs where the percentage of workshops is scaled to the end result. http://www.mathsisfun.com/graph/function-grapher.php?func1=180/(x*1.6)&func2=60/(x*1.2)&xmin=-5.41333333333333&xmax=77.7733333333334&ymin=-4.882&ymax=49.458 (http://www.mathsisfun.com/graph/function-grapher.php?func1=180/(x*1.6)&func2=60/(x*1.2)&xmin=-5.41333333333333&xmax=77.7733333333334&ymin=-4.882&ymax=49.458)

p.s. 18% is a kind of silly high number. (using new graph now) 10% may be too high: If my income is 100%-10%=90%, it cost me 5 turns to build that last 20%.  For about 10 turns more cost, I'd have about 4% workshops, which is a gain by factor 96/90, or about 6% extra income.


Actually... t=round(b*(w/3))....

p.s. building workshops one turn at a time (use max per turn rounded down as number to build) outpaces trying not to lose built facilities due to rounding... e.g. for 121 pre-existing workshops,
(python console)
>>> turns = 6./(x%6)
>>> numtobuild = turns / (x/6) + 1
>>> x = 121

<--complicated and futile. C'est la vie.

wow well if you are that commited to the game its no wonder why you seem to be becoming good quite fast

ha.. one of the greats? he's about as great as you are at this game
