YES BOSS!

this is a very question i dnt xpct any competent mathematician to fail. i'm highly surprised of wat hav been seeing so far. now lets go by d solution, "we need half of us + u (a single bird) alongside wit us to make hundred right?
now lets use (x) to represent number of birds flying prior to d encountering of d single bird.
lets divide x by two to represent number they were expecting to complete them hundred x/2.
x + x/2 +1(d single bird to make dem 100) = 100
collect like terms
x+x/2=100-1
=> x+x/2=99
l.c.m of d left equation
(2x + x)/2 =99
cross multiply
3x=198
now find x ( number of the birds on their way b4 they encounter dat single bird, remember we represent them wit x )
x= 66. (which implies dat 66 birds were on their way)
now lets go in a theorical way, wats half of 66? 33 right? now 66+33=99+1(the other bird)=100. clear now?

Bravo. Claps

66 would have been correct if there was "more" at the end of the question, but since it's not there, the answer then is 198.

lekkie073, Please Check Email sir!

Thank You.

How about
x-x/2+1=100
(2x-x) /2=100-1
x/2=99
x=99*2
X=198

Note I never saw anywhere the question said the birds were less than 100. It just said the birds were not 100. Could be more or less.

Bimffo:
Some birds were flying and met a bird on their way. The bird greeted them, 'Hello Hundred!'
They said, we are not hundred, we need half of us plus you to make us hundred.

Q. How many birds were flying?

Try:
X/2 + 1=100
X being d some birds, and 1 being d a bird.
X/2=99
X=99×2
X=198
Total no.
Some birds + a bird
198+ 1=199.
At least I tnk so.

blank:
198 birds were flying.

100=x/2 + 1
100 - 1= x/2
99=x/2
99*2=x
x=198

Over thinking no fit solve problem. Lol. You're a genius
