Eric The Sheep There is a line of sheep waiting to be shorn. Eric is last in the line and too impatient to wait his turn, so every time the shearer takes a sheep from the head of the line, Eric jumps forward two sheep. Since you know how many sheep are in the line in front of Eric at the start, how many will be shorn before Eric gets to the head of the line?
We are trying to figure out what the functional relationship is. We
got
to
choose
the
number of sheep in the line, look at the graph to the below to see my problem. The functional relationship: If the number is not divisible by 3, round it up to the highest number it can round up to the highest number which is divisible by 3,(example = if it is 1, don始t round it down to 0, round it up to 3) next, divide it by 3.
