Answer 33

@LunyMoony "if you grow up I will give you a medal? what you mean?

Answer 34

Sorry, didnt know what you meant but I believe no one likes it when people act immature and give out random drama. When I said it has to be C is because the problem I was doing rounded out to something like 1.7.., so we kind of have to assume its 107 they want.
Again, sorry, for the misunderstanding @billj5 You are a good mathematician

Answer 35
