A Riddle

If a man has 100 biscuits and then four robbers steal 24 and a half of them but the man manages to steal 14 back but the robbers take half of his current biscuits but the man steals back half of those that they just stole but the robbers beat him down and take a third more of his biscuits but the man jumps up and drops 2 biscuits and steals back nine of them but the robbers take 18 biscuits and drive away but they accidentally drop 5 biscuits and the man gets back 3 of his biscuits how many biscuits does the man have in the end?

Too many.

 

I wouldn't argue with that.

 

17.75, I believe...in base 10 and not counting the crumble factor.

 

Maybe something like that i honestly don't know myself lol

 

The real question is, where did a man get 100 biscuits in the beginning?

 

:guilty:

 

LoL I lost track at but they beat him down and steal 1/3 more

 

That's easy, by that time he'd have somewhere about around something like maybe probably not but you never know I mean with his mismatched eye and mustache but then again

 

uh

I calculated about 41.75, assuming he gets back the five biscuits dropped as the guys ran away. But math was never my strong subject...

 

Yeah, that part confused me as well...

Oh, well it says that he gets three of those five biscuits back. Sorry for the unclear terminology.
