If you've ever tossed coins into a fountain and made a wish, you may have wondered what happens to all that money. Since all of those coins can clog up fountains, the coins are regularly removed by city or park officials. In New York City, however, "most of the coins have already been removed by entrepreneurial New Yorkers," according to New York City Parks and Recreation spokesperson Maeri Ferguson. Thus, there isn't much money left to be removed. It's a different story at Rome's Trevi Fountain, however. Roman officials are known to crack down on "skimmers," people who take coins from the fountain. Consequently, as much as four thousand dollars in coins is gathered from the Trevi Fountain every night.Directions: Match causes with their effects.(1 point)Put responses in the correct input to answer the question.
