In a Fixx, No.5 "Set the Table" Mystery Cache

This cache has been archived.

Nomex: As there's been no cache to find for months, I'm archiving it to keep it from continually showing up in search lists, and to prevent it from blocking other cache placements. If you wish to repair/replace the cache sometime in the future, just contact us (by email), and assuming it meets the guidelines, we'll be happy to unarchive it.

Geocache Description:

In the future, I hope to do periodic "brain teasers" but this is the last of the "In a Fixx" series. The above coordinates are not correct. Solve the puzzle below and determine what the cache coordinates are.

Each of the letters in the formulae, right of the equals sign, represent an unknown number. You have to find the number that corresponds to that letter. The letters ARM,LEG are calculated. This was not done at random, there is a definite number for each letter in the formulae. This isn't much to go on, but any more information would be a spoiler.

A = P-C-F
R = P-N
M = K-P

L = S-2N
E = F-N
G = C-B+1

Cache coordinates:

N 47*14.ARM
W 122*25.LEG

There is construction going on at the park as they are putting in a new drainage system so the cache is back in it's original hiding place.
