Mission 6: Math Scrambler
You were all given a Math equation that corresponded in order with a letter of the alphabet. All of the correct letters spelled out a city, Buffalo. Five of the math equations were solved correctly, but two(the same one) were not. Those were the ones sent to Hannah and Toby.
Mike and Christian guessed Buffalo so you earned $20,000. The rest either guessed incorrectly or did not guess.
