Gamers test your thinking skills!

Ok heres the information to use

Lets have H=hotel with 00(infinite) rooms

the hotel rooms are listed like so: [1][2][3][4][5][6]...[00]

-------------------------------------------------------------------

Problem 1: 1 person comes by and asks for a vacancy at the hotel. How will the hotel manager

be able to give this person a room if its impossible to count infinity?

Problem 2: 00 people come and asks for a room at the hotel. How will the hotel manager be able to

give each person a room if its impossible to count infinity?

--------------------------------------------------------------------

Hints:

Given the second hint early since someone had already mentioned it.

1+00=00.

2*00=00.

-----------

Alright good luck gamers; I know you can figure it out!

I'll give 1 hint per day if no one figures it out. We learn something in school everyday heh.

--------------------------------------

Problem solved thanks to the power of the internet. :p

Problem 1: 1 person comes by and asks for a vacancy at the hotel. How will the hotel manager

be able to give this person a room if its impossible to count infinity?

who said hes going to be counting to invinity? he just gives him an open room...

Problem 2: 00 people come and asks for a room at the hotel. How will the hotel manager be able to

give each person a room if its impossible to count infinity?

"follow the person in front of you and each of you go into a vacant room"

Divide by zero. Problem solved. OR IS IT REALLY SOLVED?! OH SH-BEAN_LARD_MULCH

Explain to me how you will be able to divide 00 by zero?

Its not possible however, both problems above are very possible to solve.

Problem 1:You are thinking on the right track but your missing the point that its 00 rooms so how exactly would the manager know which rooms are open and closed?

Problem 2: Again how will the people be able to traverse a room if its 00. If you put just a little more thought you can probably figure it out.

You really are thinking close but just not clearly enough.

DO NOT DISTURB signs ;)

DO NOT DISTURB signs ;)

thats practical but not the right answer heh.

Problem 2: If there is [00] people, then each person gets a room.Luminouslight

yes but how will the hotel manager be able to put 00 people in 00 rooms without knowing which rooms are full or vacant?

Now if you were assuming that all the rooms were empty than your answer would work but no assumption was made that any of the rooms are full nor empty. Its more of some full some empty basis but since its 00 its not possible for the hotel manager to know what rooms they can use.

I know its hasnt been a day but the problem is probably tougher than I thought so heres a big hint!

00(inifinity)

1+00=00.

Alright good luck!

If there are unlimited rooms, then just give everyone a coded keycard. When they try to insert it into the door, and the room is occupied, it will kick the card out. If the room is not occupied, it will lock the card and the locking sequence. At that point, an infinite number of people will be able to fit into an infinite number of rooms regardless if there were some originally occupied.muthsera666

Heh theoritically that would work but then you would have the problem of producing an infinite amount of cards and being able to hand an infinite amount of cards to an infinite amount of people. So it just doesnt seem logically sound.

Demolish the wretched hotel.StephenHu

How would you demolish a hotel with infinite rooms? Lol.

If you are supposing an infinite number of rooms, then why can't it be supposed an infinite number of locks and keys?

And the infinite people need to come in somewhere. They would have to register so that they could be billed.

I daresay that my assessment is logical based upon the non-logically sound basic scenario you have depicted herein.

If it's impossible to count to infinity, then how do you know that there are infinity people/hotel rooms?GameFreak315

The scenario of the problem is based in the world of mathematics. However, if you wanted to count infinity you could use the correspondence method. But that really is not related to the question the problem is asking. Also correspondence is not acutally counting but more of an elimination. Like say there is a group of people who cant count past 4 so anything over 4 they cant count and its the same as infinity is to us.

So they want to see who has the most rubies even though the number may go over 4. Its done like this.

r1=first person's ruby

r2=other person's ruby

r1,r1,r1,r1,r1,r1

r2,r2,r2,r2,r2,r2,r2,r2,r2,r2,r2,r2

So as soon as the first person can no longer check their amount of rubies with the other person they are able to tell that the other person has the most rubies. Thats the gist of it.

Its easy to demolish a hotel with infinite rooms as long as the space it takes up is finite. For example, a 100 ft^3 room could be divided into an infinite number of compartments they would just become increasingly small. Jocubus

Ok now take a crack at the problem.

Haha I guess, but the scenario I proposed is in the logic of infinity mathematics. Now why dont you take a crack at the problem and use the hint 1+00=00.

problem 1:

just give the person the next empty room because you will never run out, this way you dont have to keep track of which rooms are open.

problem 2:

what is infinity*2? still infinity, if the first infinity of rooms are of unknown status, give the 00 people the next 00 of rooms.

EDIT: why the hell would you hire a manager for your 00 room hotel if he can't manage it? if he's the manager, it's only possible that he has the ability to keep track of the finite amount of rooms he has check out to customers.

he is a bad manager if he over books. Besides computer systems solve this.

infinite +1 and bam he has a room for them. win

uhhh....

Ah. I use common sense logic. I don't like mathematical logic. I utilize logical arguments in the language arena.

Chairman-Yin

With your answer to problem one you are thinkng along the right lines but give it some more thought and you will probably get the answer.

Nice that you did 2*00=00 but you are not understanding that concept completely.

Hilarious edit.

he is a bad manager if he over books. Besides computer systems solve this.

infinite +1 and bam he has a room for them. win

Ravirr

A computer system cannot solve this remember the PCP or post correspondence problem.

1+00=00 yes but you are not applying that to the problem correctly.

Divide by zero. Problem solved. OR IS IT REALLY SOLVED?! OH SH-BEAN_LARD_MULCH

Divide zero...by zero :shock:

can result in atomic explosion.....

A hotel can't have an infinite amount of rooms, because there is a finite amount of space. Therefore the problem is impossible to solve.cool_baller

Incorrect answer it has a solution in the logic of mathematics, but more precise in the logic of infinity mathematics. Also dont see the hotel as a physical entity just as a image tool used to simply the problem.

Problem 1: 1 person comes by and asks for a vacancy at the hotel. How will the hotel manager

be able to give this person a room if its impossible to count infinity?

who said hes going to be counting to invinity? he just gives him an open room...

Problem 2: 00 people come and asks for a room at the hotel. How will the hotel manager be able to

give each person a room if its impossible to count infinity?

yes you didnt read the site you posted? Its clearly answers problem one and problem two of the question I asked.

i read part of it and i like my logic better then maths non-logicInk__Blot

common sense is limited to the human psyche but mathemathics is limited to the universe.

dividing by zero creates undefined. there is no division needed to solve this problem so the solution can be defined.

#1

The Hotel will always be vacant because there will always be rooms available. There are 00 rooms. There will never be 0 rooms available.

Remember? 1+00=00.

#2

Even though there are 00 people, there are also 00 rooms. There will ALWAYS be rooms available and people can keep coming.

00 over 00 does not = 1. It = 00.

The manager can just use a computer that puts up randoms numbers. The Program will cross out the numbers already used. The number of rooms will never run out.

On the contrary there is a solution just because a computer cant solve it doesnt mean there is no solution. There are more problems that cannot be computed by a computer but can still be solved with the human mind.
