TTH:
How old is Bill 15
Bill is 1/2 the age of Sam
who is 3x the age of Ted
Bill = 15 (1/2 of 30)
Sam = 30 (3x10)
Ted = 10
What; Two in a row! Just let me check with what Thoh might have come up with
Set Bill to x,
since Bill is half as old as Sam, then Sam = 2x,
since Sam is 3 times as old as Ted, then Ted = (2/3)x
x + 2x + (2/3)x = 55
multiply by 3 on both sides,
3x + 6x + 2x = 165
11x = 165
x = 15
So Bill is 15 years old, Sam is 30 years old and Ted is 10 years old. So I was right!!!
Thoh:
OWT 1^2 = back to square one
Amazing!

Hey, I love cats. Nuff said.
Suppose you tear a piece of paper in half and give half to another person. Then each person with paper tears it in half and passes half on to another person.
How many people would have a piece of paper after 10 rounds of tearing and passing
