factorial1: Haha...boss, hope u aint referring to me o...? Lolz, no deny dat.

Alpha Maximus: Alright , this was a simple case of word problems leading to simultaneous equations. Mathematically transforming the aforementioned question into equations, we have that a=humans and b=animals, since humans, lions and Thomson's gazelle each have a single head, we have that
A+b=7678....(I)
Since humans have two legs each and the animals have four, we have an equational interpretion of :
2a+4b=28490
Using the elimination method and multiplying (I) by 2 for the purpose of the extrication of the unknown 'a', we have
2b=13134
B=6567 animals, inputting 'b' into (I), we establish that a=1111humans
We were given info that the gazelles constitute 8796 legs so we arrive at the following
(4*6567)-8769=17472legs owned by lions
We divide by four since lions have four appendages. Thus
17472/4=4368 lions

smurfy:

Yeah. Good job to you all. But let's tone down a little on the long word problems. They are usually a problem for those of us using phones. How come we aren't seeing questions on geometry etc.? You people should try us in other areas of maths too.

doubleDx:

Yeah, you and smurfy; congrats anyway you guys did great! You skipped two questions, why naw? you for use guessing method naw

doubleDx:

Yeah, we will touch other areas in the next round....congrats!

jackpot: sorry, I was fast to type it so that some may find it useful since the time allowed to solve it was short. Hence d lil mistake. My bad!
I split the probability into three for each three odd and like wise even numbers.
i meant
use 2/9 for number 2,
2/9 for 4
2/9 for 6
all in all 2/9+2/9+2/9 = 2/3 (total prob. for even)

1/9 for number 1
1/9 for 3
1/9 for 5
all in all 1/9 +1/9 + 1/9 = 1/3 (total prob for odd)

doubleDx:

Yeah, you did great! keep it up! Wishing you and others luck in the next round!

General jackpot...howdy?

aysuccess99: @toideve, u did ur best my boss...i can confess 2 u dat u did a nice job,u really wrk hard and show ur stuff.* i doff my hat 4 u*...u will continually be my oga,boss nd guru....grt mathematician..

jackpot: I'm fine, Super-General doubleDx

never mind my non-participation sha. I dont wanna start what I may not finish cos the quiz is strictly timed. My schedule is not very flexible.

I don think am before. Refreshing mails, collecting mails, resending correct candidates to Richiez, responding to Richiez's mail, posting questions, solutions and replying people's post; all these in a record time.

You guys are doing a great job of doing all these.

Kudos!

MORNING BOSSES!!!

aye ti leri dey quiz ooo, me Ah no fit wait o

aysuccess99:
guy gud mawning o....chai...pls nah beg i dey beg o...pls easy 2day o...me dey fear o...@factorial,kendzyma,logodwhiz,amazing angel(last gal standing),dr gboy,smurfy...i hail u nah...best of luck 2 everybody o.........@richiez, we ar xpectn d best 4rm u sir, grt wrk boss,keep d flag flying high*d grtst leader*,@doubledx,my grt boss,i hail o@alphamaximus,easy o...pls i am afraid of ur qstns o.

oladoya: watching!!!!!!!. And i have a suggestion after the quiz. Mr Richiz pls remind me when you guys are trough. Mind you i have a token price for first position. Also hope my brother(Ortarico) will commend the second position with a token.
