Very Small Dots!

Number Theory Level 3

You have to place dots along a strip such that:

  • The first two dots are in the different halves of the strip
  • The first three dots are in the different thirds of the strip
  • The first four dots are in the different fourths of the strip, and so on.

What is the maximum number of dots you can place on the strip?


The answer is 17.
