Answer #2

Of the twelve pies, Sally must have brought three, Jane four, and Hector five. Dividing the meal evenly, they ate three pies apiece. That means William paid $3.00. Sally ate the three pies she brought. Jane, who brought four, got $1.00 for the extra pie she contributed, and Hector, who brought five pies got $2.00.

Answer #3

The probability is 85 percent. There are only two ways in which fifty coins can total $1.00. One is 45 pennies, 2 nickels, 2 dimes, and a quarter; the other is 40 pennies, 8 nickels, and 2 dimes. So there are 85 chances out of 100 that the coin was a penny.
