The best chance is #3 because all he needs is take #1 + #2 divide by 2. e.g. #1+#2=28 then he take 14. This is the best chance to avoid being highest or lowest and worst case scenario is he equals #1 & #2. However because all 5 knows this simple theory so I think they all died because they all ended up picking the same number of beans.2 p( [) x$ k4 E4 ^: M2 J0 Z

Starting from #1, he knows he cannot pick anything bigger then 49 because if he did, then #2 only have to leave 3 beans for #3 #4 & #5 then he'll live. e.g. #1 picked 53 then #2 picks 100-53-3=44. then A,C,D,E all died. e.g. #1=53, #2=(100-53-3)=44, #3=1, #4=1, #5=1. The best chance for #1 is to pick anything less then or equal the median 20 (100 divided by 5). In fact anything between 3-20 won't change the result. Let's say #1 pick 20. 5.39.217.77:8898$ N* O8 u" i& }# q& Z- b$ g

He cannot allow that so the best chance is to match #1, so he picked 20 as well.公仔箱論壇9 K* q. I" V2 @9 [

#4 base on knowing the median rule take 60 divided by 3 =20, so he picked 20 as well.
