Question 152
The wealthy Croesus buys 88 identical vases. The price of each of them, expressed in drachmas, is an integer (the same for all 88 vases). We know that Croesus pays a total of $a1211b$ drachmas, where $a, b$ are digits to be determined (which may or may not be distinct). How many drachmas does a single vase cost?
