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.

x3 I4 N5 [9 e; e ?; W0 gStarting 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.

Now #2 knows whatever he picks, #3 will take the median between him & #1 e.g. now #1 picked 20, if he pick 6 then #3 will pick 13 putting him either being the lowest or highest. He cannot allow that so the best chance is to match #1, so he picked 20 as well.5.39.217.77:88986 Z. j5 J0 t# D

#3 did the obvious choice 40 divided by 2 =20, so he picked 20
