| Apr 13, 2014 at 6:56 | comment | added | user46855 | @Wlodzimierz Holsztynski: my sincere apologies, only now I realize that my comment could be negatively taken. I am not qualified to judge what is suitable or not for MO (I only joked about the number of people, including myself, and time necessary to reach the conclusion "yes, it is obvious"). In my opinion neat and briefly & elementary solvable problems like yours deserve a wider audience than the MO one, a audience including students and teachers. Not being MO the best forum for your question is not a negative connotation. | |

| Apr 12, 2014 at 12:49 | comment | added | user46855 | I think nobody here should be upset. Let's see: five people for a question that a high school student could solve. Is this (math) over or under flow? | |
| Apr 12, 2014 at 12:20 | comment | added | Włodzimierz Holsztyński | Thank you. Hm, this case was even simpler than $2^d-1$. Now, which answer should I award? I hope you will not be upset that I will choose the more involved case (even if both turned out to be easy). | |
