How I came to my solution:
edit.. wrong colour. |

Highlight to see calculation:
.93 + 2.49 + .55 + 1.29 = 5.26
Therefore, there is 5 DOLLARS, and 26 cents.
So, ok... we have 26 cents.
Then there is:
- the word "cents" in the question = 1
- the "c" to indicate cents = 1
- the word "cents" after 129 = 1
- the word "cents" after ninety three = 1
---------------------------------
4
4+26=30cents

yeah pretty much. What i don't get is that they are obviously a massive scam but people still ring in for them and waste their money |
