Answer 3

Barney goes to the bank with 1000 -$1 bills and 10 paper bags. His instructions to the teller are to plcae the bills in the bags in such a way that when he returns later, he can request any amount of money from $1 to $1000 and the teller must be able to give him the money without opening any of the bags. What amount of money goes into each of the 10 bags?

It is well known that the powers of 2 can be used to represent every number from 1 on up. From 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 32, etc., 1 - 1, 2 = 2, 3 = 4 - 1, 5 = 1 + 4, 6 = 2 + 4, 7 = 1 + 2 + 4, and so on. Therefore, filling each bag with $1.00 bills of quantities 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 32, 64, 128, 256 and 489 can be used to fill the bags and be able to give any amount requested without opening the bags.

Bag 1 = 1
Bag 2 = 2
Bag 1 + bag 2 = 3
Bag 3 = 4
Bag 1 + bag 3 = 5
Bag 2 + bag 3 = 6
Bag 1 + bags 2 and 3 = 7
Bag 4 = 8
Bag 1 + bag 4 = 9 and so on.
Bag 1 plus bag

Answer 4

(8.16 · 105) / (1.03 · 102)
