My little sister barged into my room clutching a paper bag. "Betcha can't guess how many stickers I bought for $6.25!"
"I guess I won't bother to guess. There's no way anyone could know how many stickers are in that bag," I told her.
"Figure it out," said the little smart aleck. "The stickers were all the same price. The number I bought is the same as the number of cents in each price."
"Hmmm...well, OK now I know it but I'm not going to tell you!" (I hate to admit when I'm stuck.)
How many stickers are in the bag and how much did each one cost?
