	An afternoon at the races		2009-05-15
		From garths: A professional gambler was betting at a horse racing afternoon. At the end of the first race he had doubled his money. He bet R30 on the second race and tripled the money he came with. He bet 54 on the third race and quadrupled (4 times) the money he came with. He bet R72 on the fourth race and lost it all. But he still had R48 left. How much money did he take to the race track?

	Combinations and horse races		2007-10-28
		From Ian: How do I calculate the number of combinations for: Horse races,1 horse in each race.I want all combinations covered. e.g.5 races, 1 horse in each race. R 1&2, R 1&3,R 1&4, R 2,3,4,5, R 1,2,3,4,5 etc etc.I have worked it out manually to 27 combinations but if I want to cover more than 5 it will be a big excercise to work out the cost manually. Many Thanks Answered by Victoria West.
