Answer:
97
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the following conditions :
board measuring 1x100, each square is numbered from 1 to 100
Three colors are used to paint the squares from left to right in the sequence :
one blue, two reds and three green squares in a repeated pattern.
What is the highest numbered square that is painted blue?
The sequence of painting is repeated after :
(1 + 2 + 3) = 6 successive squares
Since the number of squares = 100
Maximum complete repetition possible :
100 / 6 = 16 remainder 4
Hence 16 * 6 = 96 (the highest complete sequence terminates on the square numbered 96)
On the 97th square, another sequence begins which is a blue and the 100th square is painted the first of the 3 green colors.
Hence, the highest numbered square that is painted blue is 97
Yes it is, and don't worry, I hate school too! Amazing username!

Step-by-step explanation:
In the figure below, segment CD is parallel to segment EF, DE is a transversal, then angles DIH and HGI are congruent as alternate interior angles when two parallel lines are cut by a transversal.
Consider triangles DIH and EGH. In these triangles,
as alternate interior angles;
as vertical angles;
because point H bisects segment DE (given).
Thus,
by AAS postulate
Ron walks 1/2 mile in 10 minutes. There are six 10 minute intervals in an hour 60 divided by 10 is 6. So, therefore he can walk 1 mile in 20 minutes, 1/3 of an hour and a total of 3 miles per hour.
3 x 20 = 60.
Stevie walks 1/4 of a mile in 6 minutes, so that's 12 minutes to walk 1/2 mile. 60/12=5
Stevie can walk 5 half miles which transfers to 2 1/2 miles per hour.
