An example might be mates working out the cost of a fishing trip, so "Fuel will be about $100, bait about $50, accom about $200 and good about $200". So rough/approximate figures.

Using obviously wrong math to deduce a pre-ordained outcome which makes the reader want to scream like yoko ono
Boyd's calculations of his commute time from Florida to Michigan uses some pretty unrealistic yoko math
