I guess I was too busy when I was putting together your PM---I see a few that I knew and don't know why I picked the other answer... Oh well.....I would hate to beat spock1k

Speedy

 

lol nice to know someone from th emods is on my sode the other ones are ready to do a strike zero on me

 

Yeah, that must be a typo because we both got credit for 1876 being right according to our scores.

 

I will note that online I found answers for this question and some sites had 1786 and some had 85.
Same with the question---how many ways to change a dollar. Some had 292 and some had 293.

Speedy

 

dont worry spock, Im in the top five with ya!

 

do you notice the mods are always making nosies and getting more points because of that once we reach the last 5 we will take them on one by one i have a feeling that the troll and speedy may change sides

 

Yeah, oops, sorry. That was a typo on my end when I was copying the answers to here. Thanks for pointing that out man.

That is true, except only reason I only counted 292 ways is because I said without the dollar coin, if I am right there is 292 ways to change a dollar with money circulated today. Atleast I didn't ask how many ways including obsolete coinage.

Next phase will begin Tues. afternoon everybody!
