Miss match has no money left at the end. At the last store, if she spends half her money, and then another 10, then:
\n" ); document.write( "x/2-10=0
\n" ); document.write( "x/2=10
\n" ); document.write( "x=20
\n" ); document.write( "Before that, she had:
\n" ); document.write( "x/2-10=20
\n" ); document.write( "x/2=30
\n" ); document.write( "x=60
\n" ); document.write( "So she started out with $60. ☺☺☺☺ \n" ); document.write( "

\n" );
