Colin, I don't understand your answer.....
Gail, Thanks, I thought it was a book, but I just couldn't work it out!

97p in pounds, shillings & pence, with 12 pence in the shilling = 8 shillings & 1 pence. The 80f I would think are farthings which in fact would equal 1 shilling & 8 pence. ( not 3s.4p)

Colin, Thanks for clearing up your answer. I think that perhaps it is too deep for simpletons like me.
Other questions were 144 is a G = gross, 7 P in a NT + Players in a Netball Team etc Not such  complicated calculations.
Thanks for helping out though, ~  if you have any other ideas.....!
