Surya, Jenna, Brian, Prit, Sheetal and Lauren ordered lunch at the deli counter. At this deli, you order lunch by writing your choices on a card and handing it to the waitperson.
The problem is… … the waitperson can’t remember which person ordered each combination of food.
Surya got 3 quarters, a dime, and a nickel change from $3.00.
Brian spent the least amount of money, and Prit was the big spender!
Sheetal and Lauren spent the same amount of money without using any coins.
