A farmer has a rose garden. Every day he either plucks 7 or 6 or 24 or 23 roses. The rose plants are intelligent and when the farmer plucks these numbers of roses, the next day 37 or 36 or 9 or 18 new roses bloom in the garden respectively. On Monday, he counts 189 roses in the garden. He plucks the roses as per his plan on consecutive days and the new roses bloom as per intelligence of the plants mentioned above. After some days which of the following can be the number of roses in the garden?
Options:
(A) 6
(B) 7
(C) 6
(D) 4
(E) 1 Now, let's think a bit. Some random thoughts:
If he plucks 23, then only 18 grows the next day. This means total roses get decreases by 5. So after n days assume the number of roses got decreased 185 where n = 37, then 4 roses left.
The final answer: (D).
