    All square number lockers will be open. (You will actually have to solve this by making a table and checking for patterns.... difficult to solve mathematically).

    121 (11 square)

    196 (14 sqaure)

    Yes. Here's a source:

    This may help: http://delta.cs.cinvestav.mx/~mcintosh/comun/contours/node10.html

    Also, my method is a little more complicated but it possible. Try to place the sequence in a quadratic system of equations and if you are able to graph it, you will notice something. Another method you could use is to place it inside a matic and multiply crosswisr. These are some methods I figured out how to do it, but I am sure some universal genius put a formula together for this. :)

    You came up with 344 is absolutely correct as before regrigeration car there are 146 cars and after it there are 197 cars. So the result comes to 146 +1 +197 cars = 344 cars.

    Hi Andrea,

    I think you should have started another thread for your question as two question in a single thread may cause confusion to anyone. Anyhow, according to my calculations the answer to your question is as under:144
    144
    168
    192
    216
    240
    264
    288
    312
    336
    360
    384
    408.

    I have another math problem for you guys:)

    1. In Paul's bicycle shop, 40 bikes are inspected. If 15 needed new tires, and 30 needed gear repairs, answer the following"
    a) What is the greatest number of bikes that could have needed both?
    b) What is the least number of bikes that could have needed both?
    c) What is the greatest number of bikes that could have needed neither?
    Explain your answer.

    sachin was right.
    a) 15 (lowest number of bikes that at least needed something)
    b) 5 (30 + 15 = 45, so at least 5 needed both)
    c) 10 (if all of the tires also needed gears)

    Andrea, what is greater, point-9 repeating (.999...) or 1?

    You're right :]. 1 is larger. .9999 out to infinite will still be infitesemally smaller than 1.
