Question 165396: Suppose students arrive at school in groups. You are the first to arrive, and you are alone, but still considered a group. The second group to arrive has two more people in it that were in your group. The third group of students to arrive has two more people in it than were in the second group. If there are 2250 kids at your school on this day, how many groups will arrive at school, assuming they all meet the requirement of having two more members than the group before them? All groups except the last one must meet the "two more than the last group" requirement. Write an explanation how you got to your answer and write a general statement that would fit this situation no matter how many students were in the school.: Suppose students arrive at school in groups.
