Today's Question - The Dowry Boys - the cranky old King told a roomful of suitors - "a part of my daughter's dowry is this large sack of matched rubies. If you were to frame her throne with these rubies using two to a row, you would have 1 ruby left over. The same would be true of rows of 3, 4, 5 or 6. Each would have 1 ruby left over. Only rows of 7 would use all. He who tells me therefore, how many rubies in the sack wins the dowry and princess." How many rubies in the sack? Cashin’s Comments August 3, 2015 Page 4 of 4

Reveal Answer Answer - (The Dowry Boys) - Many of you apparently thought the king far richer than we assumed, therefore, you found a higher functioning number (721 was a choice). The number we assumed was the lowest possible (301).
