Once an old lady went to the market to sell eggs. She carried a basket of eggs. She sold her eggs to five people. The first bought half of the eggs and another half of an egg. The second, half of the rest and another half of the half left……The fifth took half of the eggs that the fourth person bought and another half of the half left. Then the old lady went back home with an empty basket. Do you know how many eggs the lady sold out and how many each of the five people bought?答案是31、16、8、4、2、1.请帮忙将题目翻译完整清楚并列出计算过程,好吗?其中的一句another half of the half left出现了两次,分别都是什么意思,实在让我晕!
一次一个老妇人去市场卖鸡蛋，她带着一篮子的鸡蛋。她将鸡蛋分别卖给了五个人。第一个人买了其中的一半和另一个的一半，第二个人买了剩余鸡蛋的一半及剩余的那半个--------
第五个人买了第四个人买鸡蛋剩下的另一半，并且同时买了剩下的那一半。之后老妇人带着空篮子回家了。你知道老妇人卖出了多少鸡蛋？这五个人分别买了多少个？
现在再做是不是就很容易了？^_^
The first bought half of the eggs and another half of an egg. ???
鸡蛋拿半个怎么拿?
就是“剩余的一半鸡蛋中的那半个鸡蛋”.another half of the half left中第一个half是指半个鸡蛋,而第二个half是指剩余的所有鸡蛋的一半,它们的范围是不一样的,搞清楚这个就可以了.
这道题答案就是：她总共有31个鸡蛋,第一个人买了所有鸡蛋的一半另1/2个鸡蛋,也就是16个；第二个人买了剩余的15个中的一半即7个半,以及再剩下的鸡蛋（也是7个半）中的那半个,也就是8个；以此类推,第三个人买了4个；第四个人买了2个,第五个人买了1个.
