Quick question, how would I read this in section 19? "On Friday, the three per cents. were 75f. 85c. On Tuesday
they opened at 73f. 90c. and closed at 74f."
I looked up what "f" and "c" meant but got nothing for "f" but "c" looks like something to do with electrical equipment which I don't think is relevant to the story.
Also, what if I can't get the correct pronunciation for some of these French words? lol

Thank you for asking. I believe we are working with French currency in this context, and then the first and can would be francs and centimes. 1 franc = 10 décimes = 100 centimes.

If you don't know the pronunciation of French words, you can always look it up on Google, the word and "pronunciation" will do the trick :) your accent needs not be perfect though, so don't worry too much about it :) thank you!

Thank you! I knew it had to do with currency and wasn't sure if "f" meant francs or something else. I just wanted to ask and be sure.

My American accent isn't good with French words I'm afraid lol. But I'll do my best.

Thank you!
