If there are n people, each person could shake hands with 0 people, 1 person, 2 people,... on up to shaking hands with n − 1
people. Count how many different answers there are to asking the person the question "How many hands did you shake?" How many people are there? If the people are the pigeons, and the possible answers to the question "how many hands did you shake" are the holes, can we conclude anything yet? No? How about now noticing that at least one of the holes "I shook hands with noone" or "I shook hands with everyone" has to be empty... now what?
"Since there are more pigeons than holes there must be a hole with at least two pigeons in the same hole" Now, replace the word "pigeons" and "holes" with the appropriate terms for the context of your specific question, remember we are talking about people and number of handshakes they participated in.

I was a little stumped too, but I think this is it. That's my work process, though
Hello there i hope you are having a good day :) Your question : The cost of 12 oranges and 7 couples is 55.36. Eight oranges and apples cost $3.68. Find the cost of each : Firstly you would do oranges = O Apples = A. Then 12 oranges + 7 apples = 5.36 12o + 7A = 5.36 then you would take away from both sides so -12o Take away -12o = 7o = 5.36 - 12A now you would divide this by 7 so 7 cancels each out so you are left with 5.36/ 7 = 0.76 Then it would equal 0.76 - 12o/7 This would equal the amount of apples to be $0.76 each now for the oranges you would do the same that you work out for the apples.
Hopefully that help ya :)
