Geocache Description:

The above coordinates are not correct. Cache is located in a nearby county park.

This is the first of a short series Of "In a Fixx" caches. Solve the following puzzle and you will have the right coordinates.

Javaduck found a second solution to this problem so I changed it a litte bit to prevent it happening again.
The cache coordinates remain the same. Sorry about the goof up.

A circus performance is witnessed by 120 people who have paid a total of $120. The men paid $5, The women $2, and the children $.10 each. How many of each went to the circus?

A = no. of men
B = no. of women
C = no. of children

u = A-B+2
v = C-5A+1
w = 4B-C/2
x = (A-1)/4
y = (B-1)/2
z = 7B-C+4

Cache coordinates:

N 47 13.uvw
W 122 23.xyz

The cache is in a film canister. Bring your own pencil.
