Edit: Assume every page in the textbook is numbered on both sides

how much did u donate to Trump's campaign?

(http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=3885216&forum_id=2#35340972)

think again

HINT: 50 and 51 will be on different pages

Fuck, I'm an idiot. Can't tell if it is even possible.

If this were MC, I'd guess 1 or 2.

(n) = 5050

then you subtract a pair of numbers that add up to 101.

so 99+2, or 100 +1, or 51+50...

The answer is 3. but you just simulated this which is basically cheating

(http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=3885216&forum_id=2#35341203)

or is it labeled 1-2, 3-4, 5-6, ..., 99-100

some textbooks are one way some are the other

if the former, you can remove two pages (the single-sided pages containing 1 and 100)

if the latter, you can remove one page (50-51)

21-22

23-24

5-6

(http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=3885216&forum_id=2#35341569)

TBH, you don't even have to mention that the pages are double sided now, as it can be assumed per the definition of 'textbook'.

(http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=3885216&forum_id=2#35341614)

Page 2 (7)

Page 3 (11)

Page 4 (15)

Page 16 (65)

Total equals 101

(http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=3885216&forum_id=2#35341744)

for 16th page it will be 63 and NOT 65

(http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=3885216&forum_id=2#35341806)

I don't know how to get from there to "it's exactly three pages but there are many combinations" without brute force shitmemeing it.

Something to do with the fact that the sheet numbers start at 3 and then increase by 4 ... but summing 5 of those numbers can only get you to 103 or 99 ... whereas summing 3 can get you to 101.

on a curve you will probably get A- bcos the rest of the ppl are batting D/F right now

i'm sure if you asked two groups of people to calculate the resistance of 150 feet of 18 AWG uncoated copper wire at 90 degrees Celsius, the conservatives would probably be more likely to score higher. doesn't mean they're smarter, or even that intelligence is necessarily the most important aspect of a person's worth.

and if we're going with this view that trump supporters are idiots and therefore inferior, why do we bring in 1,000,000 80 IQ third world immigrants a year

1) the thread title was clickbait

2) i am a trumpmo

3) no this question was not on some state level math competency test. even in highly selective prestigious schools like Stuyvesant/thomas jefferson 90% of the students wont be able to answer this. this was a math olympiad screening question
