Mmm... nuggets. (Posted on 2002-10-10) Difficulty: 3 of 5
At a certain nation-wide fast food chain, you can get chicken nuggets in boxes of 6, 9, and 20. What is the maximum number of nuggets you could ask for such that no combination of the 3 sizes will give you exactly what you wanted?

Sorry, I have no idea what any of that meant.
However 47 nuggets can be done with a box of 20 and three boxes of 9.
