If you can answer this in under an hour I will digitally give you a hug, or a cookie, I don't know, I have a ton of both at the end of that year lol.I just make up a really cool math word problem and I want to see if anyone can answer it XP?
I assume you mean you get 7 on each Sunday, 6 on each Monday, etc. If so there are 53 Thursdays and 52 of each other day of the week. Thursday would be a 3 cookie day so you've got 53(3)+52(7+6+5+4+2+1) or 159+52(25) or 1459 cookies.I just make up a really cool math word problem and I want to see if anyone can answer it XP?
Hmmm, well the wording may yet need some work.
Starting the year on a Thursday, we have 52 weeks and 1 day in a non leap year.
The question, is, did the pattern begin before the year did, or will it begin the first Sunday? That is 6 cookies difference right there.
Assuming that the pattern began before the year, we have
7*8/2 (cookies per week) *52 plus one Friday (2 cookies). to account for...
%26gt;%26gt;%26gt; 7*8/2*52+2
1458
%26gt;%26gt;%26gt;
Q.E.D.
I assume you mean that you get 7 cookies every monday, 6 cookies every tuesday, etc.
You receive 8脳7/2 = 28 cookies over any 7-day period.
364 days 脳 28 cookies/7 days = 1456 cookies
The 365th day of the year is a Thursday, so you receive another 3 cookies.
Total for the year = 1459 cookies.
And you didn't make up this question.
1459 cookies.
7+6+5+4+3+2+1= 28 cookies per week
your week runs thus-weds.
there are 52 of those weeks + 1 day in a 365 day year.
52*28=1456 plus the extra day.
since your week runs thus-weds, the extra day is Thursday.
On Thursday, by your pattern, you get 3 cookies.
1456+3 = 1459.
January: 4 * (7 + 6 + 5) = 4 * (18) = 72
February: 4 * (7 + 6 + 5) = 4 * (18) = 72
March: 5 * (7 + 6 + 5) = 5 * (18) = 90
April: 4 * (7 + 6 + 5) = 4 * (18) = 72
May: 4 * (7 + 6 + 5) + 7 = 4 * 18 + 7 = 79
June: 6 + 5 + 4 * (7 + 6 + 5) = 11 + 4 * (18) = 11 + 72 = 83
July: 4 * (7 + 6 + 5) = 4 * (18) = 72
August: 4 * (7 + 6 + 5) + 7 + 6 = 72 + 13 = 85
September: 5 + 4 * (7 + 6 + 5) = 5 + 4 * (18) = 5 + 72 = 77
October: 4 * (7 + 6 + 5) = 4 * (18) = 72
November: 4 * (7 + 6 + 5) + 5 + 6 = 4 * (18) + 11 = 72 + 11 = 83
December: 5 + 4 * (7 + 6 + 5) = 5 + 4 * (18) = 5 + 72 = 77
Summing up, you ate 934 cookies in the entire year.
can it be a negative number? either 0 or I owe somebody about a zillion trillion cookies.
931 will be the sum of the cookies that you will be collecting throughout the year
27951 ?
actually wait. you won't have any cos you will have eaten them right?
will tell u at end of year:)
