Smallest 7478

The hat has 14 grays, eight white, and six mice. What is the smallest number of mice we have to pull out of our hats to ensure we have at least one mouse of each color?

Correct answer:

n =  23

Step-by-step explanation:

a=14 b=8 c=6 n1=a+b+1=14+8+1=23 n2=b+c+1=8+6+1=15 n3=a+c+1=14+6+1=21  n=max(n1,n2,n3)=max(23,15,21)=23
