The Chain

December 30, 2007

A client got in a jewelry store and asked:
- I have here six chains, each one with 5 nodes, how much would it cost to put them together into one circular chain?
The jeweler told him that for each node he had to open and close, he would charge one dollar.
What would be the cheapest price for the service and why?
