A shopkeeper A sells 2 balloons to a buyer and some number of balloons to shopkeeper B. Again another buyer comes and shopkeeper A sells 2 balloons to him and some number to shopkeeper B. Every time whenever new buyer comes, same number of balloons are given to B. At the end, A has no balloons and B has total of 100. What is the maximum number of buyers who purchased balloon from A.
@sandy111,
The most would be to give two balloons to A and one to B. At the end B has 100 balloons. So the person sells one plus two balloons each time and they repeat the sale one hundred times. That would be the maximum as you can't sell fractional balloons (they'll pop).
