three the next two and the smallest one Every circle within another gains an additional two points for each circle it is within Every circle intersecting another gains one additional point for every circle it intersects For example if one of the smallest circles is Avithin two others and intersects two more it has 1 the value of one point on its own account 2 four points on account of being within two other circles and 3 two points on account of intersecting two more a total value of seven points The problem is to ascertain the total number of points represented by the five different sizes circles The number of points represented by each size must be computed separately and the whole added together In calculating the number of points if more are given than a respective circle is entitled to the solution wall be voided The object to work to therefore is to get as near the exact number of points as you can without exceeding the number represented by any one sized circle In the event that two people give the same number as the grand total but differ as to the number of points represented by one or more of the different sized circles the one whose calculation of the respective circles is nearest correct will be regarded as submitting the better solution Solutions must be submitted in the following way The blank for the information must be inclosed in a small envelope apart from the working papers which should be inclosed in a larger envelope If the outside or larger envelope is mailed write the name and address of the sender in the upper right hand corner
