[wwomanC6]

I don't do algebra. Add, subtract, multiplication.

Tom did you ban everyone else?

[Y2Kvert4me]

I banned no one.

Americano 39
Latte 36
Expresso 15
Cappuccino 45

Americano = 33
Espresso = 9
Cappuccino = 3
Latte = 36

Besides, wwomanC6 spelled Espresso wrong.

[lspencer534]

Americano = 33
Espresso = 9
Cappuccino = 3
Latte = 36

Besides, wwomanC6 spelled Espresso wrong.

Her figures are correct. Cappuccino – 45, Espresso – 15 and Americano – 39.
You are correct about the spelling, though.

I contest the results. She spelled Espresso wrong.

You're allowed to do that. Fill out form B-22 in quadruplicate and sent it and 5 certified copies of your birth certificate (along with a $500 gift card from Lowes) to our offices in Thailand. Your response will be given the attention it deserves....
