From Bill:
If you have $25billion dollars, what would the value of this amount become if you inflated it at 4% per year for 55 years?=C2=A0 My TVM calculator will not go this high.

Combinations of Golf Groups 2008-12-05
From Duane:
We have a golf outing coming up with 25 golfers playing 5 rounds in 5-somes. Is there a formula to figure out where everyone can play with different people each round? Thanks, Duane

Four 25-sided dice 2005-11-24
From dan:
Simply put, I am curious to find the likelyhood of each possibility (4-100) if I were to roll 4 25-sided die. It seems to start off simply, as 1, 4, 10, 20...following the inside diagonal of Pascal's triangle. But as soon as i reach the point where the sum is greater than the number of sides, Pascal's no longer seems to work. I would be greatly appreciated if I could be informed of the proper formula to find this answer, or perhaps if my theory of doing it is wrong.
