+boats2 Posted April 26, 2009 Share Posted April 26, 2009 What is the etiquette here? How long should we wait for a DING or otherwise? Quote Link to comment
+boats2 Posted April 27, 2009 Share Posted April 27, 2009 I think it has been long enough now. I'll award the DING myself. Next question: If all the numbers from 1 to 1000 (one thousand) inclusive were written out in words, how many letters would be used? Do not count spaces or hyphens. For example, 342 (three hundred and forty-two) contains 23 letters and 115 (one hundred and fifteen) contains 20 letters. Quote Link to comment
+MartyBartfast Posted April 28, 2009 Share Posted April 28, 2009 total guess: 10000 Quote Link to comment
