You have $100 to spend on pets. Cats cost $1, Dogs cost $15, and mice are 25 cents each. You must buy at least one of each animal! [Can't buy 100 cats] It has to equal exactly 100 dollars and you have to buy 100 animals....Good luck =]

9 cats, 4 mice, and 6 dogs! Dogs equal 90,and the mice equal a dollar, and the cats are nine! 90 + 9 + 1= 100!

I'll work it out mathmatically...
c=1 (cats)
d=15 (dogs)
m=.25 (mice)
1x+15y+.25z=100
x=-15y=.25z+100
y=-1/15x+-1/60z+100
(-15y-.25z+100)+.25z=100
-15y+100=100
-15y=0
y=0
I don't know, since you said there has to be at least one of everything...and this says there aren't any dogs...
