For #1 it can't be simple multiplication can it? (10 cents???) Theres gotta be a trick.

For #2 I’m wondering if you can even measure mud in liters. Is that a trick question?

2. "I must admit that I was not serious when I was telling you that I was not kidding about rethinking my decision of not changing my mind," my friend was telling me. So, is he really going to change his mind or not?
