Colored Balls #1
You have five red balls, five yellow balls, and five blue balls.
How can you arrange them in a triangular frame with 5 rows so that no two balls of the same color are next to one another?
(Remember a triangular frame with five rows would go like
Row 1: one ball
Row 2: 2 balls
Row 3: 3 balls
Row 4: 4 balls
Row 5: 5 balls)
AnswerFirst row: Red (from left to right)
Second row: Yellow Blue (left to right)
Third row: Blue, Red, Yellow(left to right)
Fourth row: Red, Yellow, Blue, Red (left to right)
Fifth row: Yellow, Blue, Red, Yellow, Blue(left to right)
