Roxanna has a collection of silver spoons from all over the world. - If the spoons are arranged in sets of 7, there are 5 left over.
- If the spoons are arranged in sets of 8, there is 1 left over.
- If the spoons are arranged in sets of 15, there are 14 left over.

If she has at least 50 spoons, what is the smallest possible number of spoons in her collection?

answer: the answer is 23

step-by-step explanation:

the answer   is 200

step-by-step explanation:

this is a problem about poisson probabilities.   i don't know if you've

already studied poisson distributions, or if you have a place to look

to read more about the subject.  

here's how you can see a poisson distribution coming.   when there are

a lot of events that may happen at any time (or any place), and when

you're counting how many of them happen at a particular time (or a

particular place), and each event is independent of the others, then

the result is a poisson distribution.   this is roughly true for the

chocolate chips; one chip being in a cookie has only a small effect on

the probability that another chip will be in the cookie.

once you know you have a poisson distribution, you know a lot.   there

is only one parameter to a poisson distribution, so if you know the

mean, you know everything.   the form of the distribution is

  probability of n chips = {[e^(-x)]*(x^n)} / (n! )

all you   do is count how many times you move
