floor(skill*0.11)

For future reference, we have a Random Question thread for one-off things like this.

Your reply made 0 sense to me. I was lead to believe it was just a certain number.

Straight from the wiki:

A character's natural hand-to-hand damage is calculated by multiplying hand-to-hand skill by 0.11 and then adding 3. When calculating the Weapon Rank, however, the number used as the weapon base damage is the number displayed on the weapon plus 3, with no contribution from hand-to-hand skill.

What Nightfyre basically said, is skill*.11, then the floor means to take away all the decimals, cause SE always rounds down (I think that's why?), but yeah. That's what he meant.

Assuming MNK, so 440 skill from natural+merits, 7 from Torque, 7 from hands and 3 from Bruiser's Earring...

Most you can get then is 457, which is D53 from skill, though I don't think any of those 3 pieces are in the best MNK sets, or are even worthwhile anymore, as you get better increases to your dmg from other gear in the slot (ie Rancor Collar, Ghillie Earring +1 and AF2+2 hands).

Edit: Derp, 53, not 50

h2h skill at 99 = 424

Add +16 for merits = 440

Damage = (440 *.11) floored = 48 (48.4 but you drop the .4)
To reach the next damage level of 49 you would need 446 skill (49.06) which you'd get from AF3+2 hands or Faith torque. In order to reach the next tier above that you would need to hit 455 skill (50.05) would would require af3+2hands, faith torque, and bruisers earring. There might be some augs existing that give h2h which would help you.

I'm not an expert, but I see most gearsets using AF2+2 hands over the AF3+2 hands. Also not seeing a lot using the Faith torque either so my guess is you get more out of the stats available from gear in those slots then you do from the damage increase from more skill.

Edit: Derp add +3 to all the damage values above because its (skill*.11) +3 (floor)
