    <b>I think you need to clean up and re-type the directions. </b>
These don't make sense to me:
<i>Greeting telegram on a special code;50 cents
Ordinary telegram costs shs 3 for 10 words and each extra word at 30 cents. </i>
What does "on a special code;50 cents" mean?
What does "shs 3 for 10 words" mean?
Clean it up and re-post, and a math tutor may be able to help you.

    Jakie, that could be. However, the person posting the original question needs to make everything crystal clear so the math tutors understand it without having to guess.
