I have Hide (30+Ranks)/20 reaching whole numbers at
10 ranks=2, 30 Ranks=3, 50 Ranks=4, 70 Ranks=5, 90 ranks=6 etc.
Now that is the whole number but is it rounded up?
So that would mean 1 Ranks=2 seconds, 20 Ranks=3(2.5), 40 Ranks=3(2.5), 60 Ranks=4(3.5), 80 Ranks=5(4.5) etc
Same question for all the other Utility skills do the bonuses kick in and round up or at the whole number?

I figure, like most other things that I'm aware of in game, the number truncates.
So if you have 55 air lore ranks and you attempt to hide:
(30 + 55 (EL:A ranks)) / 20 = 4.25
truncate down to 4.
If you have 69 ranks EL:A, it should also shave off 4 seconds for hiding
(30 + 69)/20 = 4.95
truncate down to 4
Just to test...
