so weird out of the blue, my lecturer send us this email...

Can anybody help?

A Question:

Libby is a teddy bear freak.  She has $100 to spend and she wants to buy 101 teddy bears

How many of each bear would libby have to buy to spend exactly $100 and get 101 bears?

Bear A costs $5

Bear B costs $2

Bear C costs 10cents

Can anyone figure this out for me?
