Marty_d Posted November 23, 2023 Share Posted November 23, 2023 Here's one from the radio this morning. Two pirates sit down to split loot of AROUND 300 coins. However there is 1 coin left over. They call in a third pirate and decide to split it 3 ways. However there's still 1 coin left over. So they call in a 4th, a 5th then a 6th. But there's still 1 coin left over. Finally, when they split it 7 ways, each of the 7 pirates gets an equal share. How many coins were there in the original loot? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spacesailor Posted November 23, 2023 Share Posted November 23, 2023 One too many ! . For the original pirates to get a fair share . Could say ' what to spend that coin on , ' to satisfy a pirates " lust or thirst " . LoL spacesailor 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spacesailor Posted November 24, 2023 Share Posted November 24, 2023 ' second paragraph ' " Around 300 coins " , 300÷ 3= 100 coins , for each of three pirates . BUT If I multiply 7X42 it equates to 2107. Must be ' Higher ' mathematics. spacesailor Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marty_d Posted November 24, 2023 Share Posted November 24, 2023 Peter has it. 300 is divisible by 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6. So in each case there would be 1 coin left over. However 301 is divisible by 7. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
