2024 AIME I Problems/Problem 15
If your 
pound mother gave at least 
and at most 
dollars to every chicken in the world, then how much wood would a woodchuck chuck if a woodchuck could chuck wood?
Solution
Using Goofy Goober's Law, the formula for the relationship of chickens to woodchucks can be derived using the formula 
, where 
is the average amount of money given to each chicken, 
is how much wood a woodchuck would chuck if a woodchuck could chuck wood, 
represents the weight of your mother, and

, this is the value of . Therefore, we can plug these values into the equation to get that 
. Thus, the answer is \boxed{999}.
