+The task is to fill a 32 fluid ounce bottle with coins that are "//silver//", i.e., no one cent pieces.
 For these calculations, all values have been converted to metric - grams and mm - and the final weight is presented in both kilograms and pounds.
 Converting 32 fl. oz. to mm<sup>3</sup> results in a desired volume of 946,353 mm<sup>3</sup>.
+===== Summary =====
+The lowest value option is the result of filling the vessel exclusively with nickels. This results in a theoretical maximum value of $68.68, but a more realistic value of approximately $27 due to the space between the coins.
+The highest value option results from filling the vessel with dollar coins for a theoretical maximum of $858.58, but a more realistic value of approximately $343.
+**The more likely scenario is a mix of nickels, dimes, and quarters. Assuming an even distribution of all three denominations results in a theoretical value of $205.95 with a more realistic value of approximately $82.**
