Geocache Description:

Unknown container located near a car dealer in south Fargo with their permission. It is possible that some of the employees will not be familiar with the cache. You need to solve the algebraic formula to get coordinates to the cache location.  See the full description.

This is located at a local car dealer.  You should be able to find a parking area around the building.    There is a 4 digit number above the front doors (near the listed coordinates).  Those numbers will be ABCD with A=first digit, B=second digit, C=third digit, D=fourth digit.  In the old hot and cold game, you would be Red Hot if you go to the coordinate N 46 49.EFG,   W096 50.HIJ. Solve for E=A+B+C+D, F=B+C, G=A-D   and   H=B-D, I=A+B+1, J=D+D
