Congratulations to Sydney Edens for submitting the first correct response to last week's puzzle:  12 pennies, 14 nickels, 7 dimes and 3 quarters

Congratulations also to Marcus H., Harry S. and Chris P. for also submitting the correct response.

Here is last week's puzzle once again:

Dan has pennies, nickels, dimes, and quarters in his pocket - a total
of 36 coins.  He has twice as many nickels as dimes and four times as
many pennies as quarters.  If he has $2.27 in coins, how many coins of
each type does he have?

Final results for the year are:

First Place:  Marcus Henning (12)
Second Place:  Chris Park (11)
Third Place:  Harry Sun (10)

Others who scored points:

Amberlyn T (4), Sydney E (3), Thomas R (3), Malea B (3), Ben P (2), Hannah H (2), Katelyn B (2), Janne K (2) and many more who submitted one correct response.

Thank you to everyone who participated and submitted responses for the puzzles this year.  I hope you had fun challenging your "mathematical talents".
