     Weird, but 100% systematic from 50 to 99:

     51 = 1 + 2.5*20

     64 = 4 + 3*20

     72 = 2 + 3.5*20

     87 = 7 + 4 * 20

     You mean 9+4,5*20? Okay, this is hard to beat.

     nine plus halfway (from four) to five times twenty

     twenty used to be a very common number in trade, it was called "en snes"
