Fine!

We attempt to take our family to the library once a week.  Sometimes we are awesome!  Sometimes we are less than awesome.  Unfortunately, those less than awesome times add up.  Between the ten of us we rack up enough in fines to keep the county library system running.


But today Bruce had a thought:  Each of us can check out 30 books at a time.  That means that if all ten of us took our limit, we'd bring home 300 books—that's a lot of books!  So we could bring home all these library books and then sell them on e-bay.  Hmmmm.

The question is this:  Could we sell the books for enough to cover the library's replacement fees and still make a profit? ;-)

300 books! we could clear out a whole section by ourselves! How many shelves could we empty?
