Question

On a board measuring 1x100, each square is numbered from
1 to 100. Three colors are used to paint the squares from left
to right. The following pattern is repeated: one blue square,
two red squares, three green squares, one blue, two red,
three green and so on
What is the highest numbered square that is painted blue?​

Answer 1

Answer:

Answer:

97

Step-by-step explanation:

The first square is given to be blue. This is followed by 2 reds and 3 greens, and then blue again.

If we numbered the squares, s1 is blue, s2, s3, s4, s5, s6 are not blue; and then s7 is blue.

The pattern formed for determining every blue square is (s1+6= s7), (s7+6=s13)... and so on.

In this order, the largest number below 100 would be 97.
