Bob is trying to borrow $1,000 from a group of friends. One of every three friends asked responds that their money is already tied up in other investments. Of his friends with money not tied up in investments, 2 out of 5 inform him quickly that they will? lend him money for any reason. Of the remainder, 1 out of 2 won't lend him money just based on general principles. If Bob called 60 friends, how many lend him money?

*
Now, lets work backwards.
60 friends
1/3 cannot, 1/3 of 60 = 20
So that leaves 40 friends that might.
2/5 of of the 40 will lend him money. 2/5 * 40 = 16 Will
That leaves 40-16 = 24 friends not counted yet.
1/2 won't lend him any on principal 1/2 of 24=12
That leaves 12 that might. They have not said yet.
so
16 will lend him money and 12 might lend him money.

this place is soooo much fun!

There you go.

numbers 1-100 only using numbers1994 in that order for example 1*(9-9)*4 = 0

1*(9-9)*4 = 0
-1-9 +9+4= 3

If you were a member I would ask you to edit your post and put the green game symbol in the margin.
But you can't because you are not a member. How sad., other people won't know that this is a game.

anyway, thanks for posting, I like games.

Good evening all,

There were great answers today from Rom, Zethwolf, Dude and I like Serena. A big thank you to each of you.
There were also thank you given from Princess Sophie, Jiotig and Zethwolf. It is always nice when we receive thanks for our efforts.

There was an incidence of rudeness directed at an answer provider. I dealt with it and was given an initial apology. I have asked for a little more than that so we will see.
Anyway, a genuine apology was given so I don't need to make too big a deal out of it. This is the first time, in the 4 and a half months that I have been here that anything like this has happened.

I discovered today that we can tell if the person making a post is a member or not.
If they are a member, their username is blue, if not a member then the username is black.
I think if we ever have days where we can't get to all the questions, the members should be given priority.
I added this to the 'Become a member : Why would I want to" post.

I have been using the character map since ILS told me about it. I really like it but I can't find the symbol 'pi' which seems really strange. Maybe it goes by a different name. Any suggestions?

That's it for tonight,
Thank you everyone,
My weekend has started, enjoy yours when it arrives.
Melody.

Let's pretend the entire ocean is 11 kilometers deep (depth of Mariana Trench, the lowest part of Earth).

If the Earth were the size of a billiard ball, how much water (in mL) would there be in all billiard-ball-Earth oceans?
Good luck

You would need to collect a whole lot of facts about the diameter of the earth, and the diameter of the golf ball and the percentage of the earth that is ocean covered.
The you could work it out using ratios.

Have fun
