Question: Hard Question/Riddle!?
If there are 26 kids in your "class" and everyone shakes hands with exactly one half of the class!. What was the minamum # of hand shakes!?Www@Enter-QA@Com


Answers:
169, u can't shake someone's hand more than once so 13*13=169Www@Enter-QA@Com

Dragon is correct!.
Imagine dividing the class into two groups, A and B!. Group A lines up, then each kid in Group B goes along and shakes hands with all the kids in Group A!. When this is done each kid in Group A will have shaken hands with half the class (Group B), and each kid in Group B will have shaken hands with half the class (Group A)!. To have fewer handshakes, someone would have had to not shake hands with half the class!. The 13 kids of Group A each gave 13 handshakes, so 13 x 13 = 169 handshakes!.Www@Enter-QA@Com

Maximum hand shakes would be 26 x 13 = 338
If it is assumed that every kid exchanges hand shake with one other kid, and you dont want to count the double hand shakes then minimum hand shakes would be 338 - 26 = 312Www@Enter-QA@Com

given that one does not shake hands with one self wouldn't you have to do something like (13*26)-1=337!.!.!?!?Www@Enter-QA@Com

26*13 = 338

p!.s there wouldn't be a minimum or maximumWww@Enter-QA@Com
