The highest possible number of inhabitants in that little town are 743.

<h3>What are inhabitant?</h3>

A person or animal that lives in a place is called as the inhabitant.

Suppose there is this little town with a finite number of people: (1) No two inhabitants have exactly the same number of hairs. (2) No inhabitant has exactly 743 hairs or no hairs at all. (3) There are more inhabitants than there are hairs on the head of any inhabitant.

Let say there are 519 people in the town. and make them stand in a line with increasing number of hairs on their heads. This way, there will be a person on the last, who has no hair.

There are more number of people than the hairs. From bald to 742 hairs, 743 is the limit.

Thus, the highest possible number of inhabitants in that little town are 743.

Sabbir arrived at dhaka train station at 9 30 pm write this time using the 24hr clock
mezya [45]

Okay so a 24hr clock is very simple. We usually turn to "PM" when its 12:00 (day time).
In the 24hr clock we do not, we don't use PM or AM but its crucial to know when converting a standard clock time to military time (aka. 24hr).

9:30 PM in 24hr clock is 12:00 + 9:30 because 9:30 is past that first 12 hours.

So in 24hr clock time it is 21:30. You can also count backwards from midnight to figure it out, for example 12:00 AM (midnight), minus 9:30 is 2:30. Therefore 24:00-2:30=21:30.

Hopefully it helps, heart will help me alot too!
