hard puzzle

H iAll, like the title suggests a tough one
You have to start 100 hundred people , consisting of men, women and children,
With values of Men = £10, Women =.50p and children Being valued at 12.5p.
You have to work out, How many men, Women & children, are req to make up
£100 , but you must end up with, 100 people
Eg, which is incorrect , 4 men 92 women + 4 kids, 100 people for sure, but
4 men = £40, 92 women = £41, so 4 kids = 50p which is only total of £81.50
so you have 100 people, but not £100,
can you work it out ??:giggle:
