My nine year old son has a math word problem that is driving me absolutely nuts, can anybody help?? He needs 9 different ways to spend eighty five dollars using the numbers 5,10,15,20,25,30,35,40. You have to use each number once. He has figured out all but one. You have to pick one from each group listed below
10, 15, 25
10, 20,35
5,10, 15
20,30,40
Call me crazy but I need to know the answer!

Wait so you have to pick from 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 35, and 40. Can you tell me the eight ways that he already found?

The only one I can see that adds up correctly is 35+10+40=85. Can you tell us the other combinations he already has? That might help to understand the problem more clearly.

I think I've already got the correct answer. You have to pick up one number each group right? The answer I've got is 25, 20, 10 and 30. Hopefully this is correct.
