It does allow a .zip file however. Zip the spreadsheet...

If we can speculate that there is no driver the answer doesn't seem to be a trick at all. Just multiplying it all out until one comes up with the solution.

Well I zipped it and it came to 126.0 KB. Over the maximum of 97.0 KB allowed.

There is no trick, it really is just reading the problem and doing the math. With many of the people I shared this with it wasn't the math that was the issue, it was reading the whole problem.

It wasn't difficult. You just have to break out each separate category then add the totals. There's no trickery or unstated assumptions. I think people get hung up on trying to do too many steps at one time.

I can do the math, for sure.
...at least I think I got the right number. Which will be verified when you put up the spreadsheet

Unfortunately I cannot attach an .xls file and even in a .zip file the spreadsheet exceeds the maximum allowed by vbulletin.

Did you try deleting unused tabs, any unused code, etc.? MS file formats are usually huge WRT content, but sometimes you can get the filesize down on them.

IMHO forget about the shared spreadsheet or whatever.

Too complicated for a stupid question.

Just post the answer and be done with it. Not that it matter much

I bet any fifth grader would have solved this problem by now...

err..should I just type in the answer here or are you still figuring out a way to attach the file?


No to both.
