you could keep moving peoples from room 1 to 2 to 3... for each of the infinite new guests, since there's an infinite numbers of rooms and you will not run out of room.
but moving from rooms take time, so the night have to be infinite to do that, and since they will all keeps moving all night, they won't have time to sleep.
and if they cant sleep with bother with a room?
add the peoples leaving because they cant sleep anyway, the guest who will refuse to moves from their rooms, those who will sue the hotel because of all this
and you end up with CHAOS!!!
but New Jersey can lives with more chaos so yes you can fit them in the hotel

Your answer should explain why your number is the smallest possible.
__________
The answer is 31.
In fact, every allowed way of the breaking the chocolate bar into single squares will take 31 breaks. This is because each break you make increases the number of pieces you have by exactly 1. For example, you start with 1 piece and after your first break you have 2 pieces no matter what break you choose to make. Similarly, after two breaks, you have three pieces, and after three breaks, four pieces. Since you end with 32 pieces (namely the 32 single squares in the bar), you must have made exactly 31 breaks.
31. It doesn't matter which way you do it. 3 breaks longways and 28 sideways, or 7 breaks sideways and 24 breaks longways.Quote:

__________
Adept's postcount at time of writing was 10101, which is 21 in binary.
or...
Using adept's current post count of 10101 and splitting the numbers out to 10, 10 and 1, they total 21, which is the card value of a Blackjack.
21. The number of cuts that would be used to solve puzzle #249. :confused:Quote:

so 31 cuts are needed
Cards used to be all black because they didn't have red ink. When someone got an ace and a black jack (for 21) everyone yelled "BlackJack !", and that is the "story" of Blackjack.https://forums.windrivers.com/images.../2005/03/1.gifQuote:

Hint for 250: It is no longer true now.
Using your post count of 10101 and splitting the numbers out to 10, 10 and 1, they total 21, which is the card value of a Blackjack.Quote:

3 to you, even though I was hoping for a binary interpretation.
Spork gets a bonus point for getting "21" in the first place.
I almost went for the binary too. :DQuote:
