When I submitted my answer to the problem, it wouldn't accept my results, The problem being one of amounts of money, I put a $ sign before it and it counted it as wrong, with out the $ sign it accepted it, Does it hurt the grade score chart/progress chart even though I had the right answer? Can you fix it to where on all the money problems it accepts the $ sign? On most of them it seems to be okay but for some reason on this one isn't working..
