Basic Mathematics Question.

brianbaru · 2012-09-26 17:01:56

Mathematics was always one of my weaker subjects but I have a question I would like an answer for. If I wrote (on any subject) 5 paragraphs and 5 sentences in each and then rewrote each paragraph 5 times and each sentence in each paragraph 5 times. How many sentences could I use before I started to repeat myself?

I'm not entirely sure what you're asking. If you're asking how many sentences you'll write before you have repeated all the sentences then I believe the answer is 625.

Take one paragraph. Then rewrite each sentence 5 times. Thats 25 sentences. Rewrite the paragraph 5 times. That gives 125 sentences.

Now do that for all five paragraphs: 625 sentences?
