Guess How Many Nuts are in the Jar

    Entee singles you out in the crowd of people at the Fall Fest Fair, waving you over with energetic, exaggerated movements. Before you can even manage to say hello, he thrusts a big jug of metal nuts into your arms.

    "Think you can guess how many nuts are in this jar?" He hollers at you, grinning ear to ear and holding up a knowing pointer finger. "Maybe a lot, maybe a few! Rules are: You can look at the jar, hold it, shake it, do math--whatever! Although, you can't use any special abilities like x-ray eyes and the like, or I'll ban you from the competition!"

    A little flabbergasted, you manage to ask about the prize for guessing the number correctly.

    "Prize?" Entee laughs wildly and winks at you. "Confident, are we? Uh..." He actually seems a little unsure of himself. "W-well, I guess I don't know yet! We'll cross that bridge when we get there; first, you gotta guess!"

    He extends the palm of his hand towards you and you realize: now's your chance! Better make your guess count! Good luck!
