  $Hey everyone! Just wondering shouldn't the answer for this problem be something times 2^5 instead of something times 2^4? Mainly because that was the formula Professor Loh gave us!?$

  In the video, when Prof. Loh was explaining the second way to do the pirates and gold coins problem, he only took away 8 choose 3. I thought you should take away all the different cases like 7 choose 3, 6 choose 3, etc. Why didn't he take away the rest? Thanks.

  Hi! I don't understand why it's 6 gold pirates and not 7 if there are 7 numbers on the number line...? It's not like the separators a, b, and c will be placed between the numbers, or will they? But I do understand why it's 4 pirates. Thanks!
