About this exercise
Check the bookings pace. Write exactly 4 plain-text lines starting Linear plan:, Actual:, Gap:, Percent of plan:. Show the math with two decimals in millions. Use the current plan of 2.40, not the old one. The quarter has 13 weeks and 6 are complete. Under 55 words.
Common mistakes when you ask AI for this
- Using the old plan. The AI uses 2.20. Try: Add: "Use the current plan of 2.40."
- Wrong weeks. The AI uses 6 / 12 or 7 weeks. Try: Add: "13 weeks in the quarter, 6 completed: 2.40 x 6 / 13."
- Skipping the sign or math. The AI says 'about 0.2 behind'. Try: Add: "Gap = actual - plan, with a minus sign, two decimals."
- Extra commentary. The AI adds a recovery plan. Try: Add: "Exactly 4 plain-text lines, under 55 words."
