You have chickens @ .50, pigs @$3 , and horses @ $10. How can you spend exactly $100 and buy exactly 100 animals. You must buy at least 1 of each animal.
Okay a friend of mine says "let's see how long it'll take for your buddies on Discussionpool to get this one"

Hope you like poultry!

94 chickens @ $.50 = $47.00
1 pig @ $3.00 = $3.00
5 horses @ $10.00 = $50.00

100 creatures, $100.00

PS - didn't take long, but the answer disappeared from AP last night! This is probably a better place for riddles, anyway.

That's why DG deleted it at AP and asked that I put it here on DP. Sorry 'bout that, Fuse, but of course your brilliant mathmematical mind came through again. Thanks for the answer (both times).
