#Bus riddle mod#
Since this must be an integer we can work mod 64 and write 3(w + 12) = 0 (mod 64) -> 3w = -36 (mod 64) -> w = -12 (mod 64). There were originally w people on the bus.Īt Telegraph 3/4 of the passengers departed, 1/4 remained, and 7 boarded, so x = w/4 + 7 people arived at Shattuck.Īt Shattuck 3/4 of the passengers departed, 1/4 remained, and 7 boarded, so y = x/4 + 7 = (w/4 + 7)/4 + 7 people arrived at Hearst.Īt Hearst 3/4 of the passengers = 3y/4 = 3/4 departed.Įxpanding that out,: 3/4 = 3(w/4 + 35)/16 = 3(w + 140)/64.

Y can't be 4 as 7 were added.Īnswer I got was 9 people get off the bus. (the number of people who get off at stop 3) Now I only need to solve for Y, as the answer we are looking for is 3/4Y. I said well, at each stop the number of people on the bus must be a factor of 4 in order to be divided eqaully (3/4 have to get off afterall).ġ/4W +7=x (num people on bus after stop 1)ġ/4X +7=y (num people on bus after stop 2)ġ/4Y +7=z (num people on bus after stop 3) I am curious how other people looked at solving this riddle Here's a list of related tags to browse: Morbid Riddles Death Riddles Bad Riddles Bus Riddles Mind Trick Questions Long Riddles For Kids Bus Riddles Death Riddles The results compiled are acquired by taking your search 'how can you find a double decker bus' and breaking it down to search through our database for relevant content.
