MATHS WEEK
Task

When you are finished, you can play the games

My answer is 45 for this question.


Monday: "Two Tens For a Five."
Bud Abbott and Lou Costello's first
scene in the movie 'One Night in the
Tropics' is a classic. 
Abbott cons Costello by simply asking
for change. "Have you got 2 tens for a
five?" he asks. As Lou realised he has
been duped, Bud snaps back: "OK, here's
your five, give me back my 2 tens!" The
skit carries on and Lou loses money! 
"Two Tens for a Five" is a classic vaudeville
routine made famous by Bud Abbott and Lou
Costello and has been repeated many times
over the years.
Here is the script!
Abbott: Have you got two tens for a five?
Costello: Just so happen to have it.
Lou gives Bud ten dollars and Bud gives Lou five dollars. Costello: Just a minute, just one minute! Abbott: Something wrong? Costello: Fifteen dollars just went south! Abbott: What do you mean? Costello: You gave me a lot of your fast talk, you said 'do you have two tens for a five' and I gave you two tens for a five. Abbott: Just a minute, are you accusing me of cheating? Costello: No, but you got two tens for a five. Abbott: Alright here's your five now gimme back my two tens. Costello: Okay, that's better. Bud gives Lou five dollars and Lou gives Bud ten dollars. After a slight pause Lou realises he has been conned again. Costello: What are you doing? Abbott: What’s wrong now?
Costello: Look Abbott, here's two tens gimme a five!
Abbott: Certainly.
Lou gives Bud ten dollars and Bud gives Lou five dollars.
Costello: HA HA HA HAAA! 
You did it to me... 
You did it to me again.
Abbott: Oh come on.

The 300 Dollar Question. 
How much did Lou lose ?
Try to act it out with you friend. Use paper as money!
Maybe you can act it out as the famous Bud Abbott and Lou Costello 
did!

The right Answer was $45 √
