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 Does Bitcoin Mining Work?

Bitcoin mining is the process of adding new transactions to the Bitcoin blockchain. It’s a tough job. People who choose to mine Bitcoin use a process called proof of work, deploying computers in a race to solve mathematical puzzles that verify transactions.To entice miners to keep racing to solve the puzzles and support the overall system, the Bitcoin code rewards miners with new Bitcoins. “This is how new coins are created” and new transactions are added to the blockchain, says Okoro.

The STAR Market, as is implied by the name, is heavily geared toward smaller innovative tech companies, in particular those engaged in strategically important fields, such as biopharmaceuticals, 5G technology, semiconductors, and new energy. The STAR Market currently has 340 listed securities. The STAR Market is seen as important for China’s high-tech and emerging industries, providing a space for smaller companies to raise capital in China. This is especially significant for technology companies that may be viewed with suspicion on overseas stock exchanges.
