    2.Ryan spent 66P.
    Silver
    Waylon spent 48P and Talia spent £2.40.
    They spent £2.88 altogether.
    Talia spent £1.98 more than Waylon.
    Lia spent £1.08 for 3 oranges and Marcus spent £2.16 for 6 oranges.
    they spent £3.24 altogether.
    Marcus spent £1.08 more than Lia.
    Gold
    50p,10p,10p,10p,20p.

    I would choose 1p doubling every day because in £10 per day will give you £300 and 1 penny doubling every day will give you way more money.
