Answer to Q88

A flock of birds flying met a single bird.

The single bird greeted the flock "hello hundred" but the flock replied "we are not hundred, half of us plus you will make us hundred". How many birds were flying?


Let the number of birds in the flock be x

But half of x plus 1 will make a hundred
so,
(x ÷ 2) + 1 = 100
x ÷ 2 = 99
x = 99 * 2
x = 198

So, number of birds in the flock is 198.

But here is the tricky part, the question asked "How many birds were flying?" NOT "What is the number of birds in the flock?". The single bird that greeted the flock was also flying (if he wasn't flying how would he have met the flying flock?).

So, number of birds flying = number of flock + single bird
= 198 + 1
= 199

Answer: 199

How to Invest in Bitcoin?

Like a stock, you can buy and hold Bitcoin as an investment. You can even now do so in special retirement accounts called Bitcoin IRAs. No matter where you choose to hold your Bitcoin, people’s philosophies on how to invest it vary: Some buy and hold long term, some buy and aim to sell after a price rally, and others bet on its price decreasing. Bitcoin’s price over time has experienced big price swings, going as low as $5,165 and as high as $28,990 in 2020 alone. “I think in some places, people might be using Bitcoin to pay for things, but the truth is that it’s an asset that looks like it’s going to be increasing in value relatively quickly for some time,” Marquez says. “So why would you sell something that’s going to be worth so much more next year than it is today? The majority of people that hold it are long-term investors.”
