THE 298
DIVISION PROBLEM
Age group: All
Hi everyone!
Here is another interesting puzzle!
"Rohan's grandfather gave him exactly Rs 298. He then said, 'This amount will be yours if you do as I ask.' 'What do you want me to do?', Rohan asked. 'Simply this. Divide the amount, in whole rupee increments, into a number of bags so that I can ask for any amount between Re 1 and Rs 298, and you can give me the proper amount by giving me a certain number of these bags without opening and taking partially from them.'
What is the minimum number of bags Rohan will require?"
Solve this and do let me know your answers in the comment section!
