A girl has as many brothers as sisters, but each brother has only half as many brothers as sisters. How many brothers and sistes are there in the family?
This can actually be solved using mathematical equations. It's mosre or less like word problem!
Let the number of girls be x Let the number of boys be y
A girl has as many brothers as sisters
So, x - 1 = y
each brother has only half as many brothers as sisters
So, y - 1 = x ÷ 2 we can rewrite this as 2(y - 1) = x

So, x - 1 = y
each brother has only half as many brothers as sisters
So, y - 1 = x ÷ 2 we can rewrite this as 2(y - 1) = x
Putting x = 2(y - 1) into x - 1 = y
2y - 2 - 1 = y
Collecting like terms
2y - y = 2 + 1
y = 3
Putting y = 3 into x - 1 = y
x - 1 = 3
x = 3 + 1 = 4
So, x = 4; y = 3
Answer: 4 sisters, 3 brothers

I have no inside knowledge of a potential stock listing of the popular anti-Whatsapp messaging app, Telegram. But I know this much, judging by most people I talk to, especially crypto investors, if Telegram ever went public, people would gobble it up. I know I would. I’m waiting for it. So is Sergei Sergienko, who claims he owns $800,000 of Telegram’s pre-initial coin offering (ICO) tokens. “If Telegram does a SPAC IPO, there would be demand for this issue. It would probably outstrip the interest we saw during the ICO. Why? Because as of right now Telegram looks like a liberal application that can accept anyone - right after WhatsApp and others have turn on the censorship,” he says.
To pay the bills, Mr. Durov is issuing investors $1 billion to $1.5 billion of company debt, with the promise of discounted equity if the company eventually goes public, the people briefed on the plans said. He has also announced plans to start selling ads in public Telegram channels as soon as later this year, as well as offering other premium services for businesses and users.
