Michelle, a school teacher, went shopping for pencils at the local general store the other day. The pencils were on sale for only 28 cents each.
However, she got it in her head that, for good luck, the total amount of money she must spend must be a number where all of the digits are the same.
With that in mind, what is the minimum number of pencils she must buy?
Good luck! ^_^
