20, 40, 60, 80,........



Have you ever wondered just how much money is in the game of Monopoly? I guess my son did, and he decided to find out.
The hardest part was not the counting, it was keeping his sister from "disturbing" the process.
I'm sure this says something about his personality, I'm just not sure what yet.

So, was he able to get the answer?

No, he didn't. It got a little too tedious, and he was getting a little too much help from his sister. I'm sure I could Google it and find out the answer though!

The bank has $15,140 in cash (in standard editions of Monopoly). The money comes in 20 orange $500 bills, 20 beige $100 bills, 30 green $50 bills, 50 blue $20 bills, 40 yellow $10 bills, 40 pink $5 bills, and 40 white $1 bills.

This looks like important, need-to-know information. I see an accountant or investment banker in your future!

Melanie,

Okay that's scary. I'm assuming you had to look that up and that you did not just know that information in your head.

I'll be sure and share this with Marshall OR I could challenge him to actually finish this little endeavor and see if he can get the right answer--since I now have the correct answer.

Thanks girl,

Amy
