Bargain Sale

Bargain Sale
Smith at a bargain sale, half as many pennies as dollars and half as many dollars as pennies?

at a bargain sale, Smith says that half his money was gone in thirty minutes so that he was left with as many pennies as he had dollars before but half as many dollars as he had pennies before. how much did he spend?

First of all your question is inconsistent. In the title you said he has half as many pennies after the sale as dollars before, but in your text you said he has the same.

** CASE 1: You really meant he has half as many pennies as he had dollars before.

If he had $20.20, then half his money would be $10.10, which would also be half as many dollars and pennies as he had before.

Same thing works if he started with $10.10… and $12.12… or any $(even number less than 100).(same even number less than 100), even technically $0.00 as zero is half of zero.

** CASE 2: You really meant the number of dollars before and pennies after were the same.

In this case it is still ambiguous has $0.00 fits the bill, but there is ONE answer greater than zero that works:

$99.98 => $49.99
