180 Combinatorial & Topological Problems
- THE ARCHERY MATCH
On a target on which the scoring
was 40 for the bull's-eye, and 39, 24,
23, 17, and 16 respectively for the
rings from the center outwards, as
shown in the illustration, three players
had a match with six arrows each.
The result was: Miss Dora Talbot, 120
points; Reggie Watson, 110 points;
Mrs. Finch, 100 points. Every arrow
scored, and the bull's-eye was only
once hit.
Can you, from these facts, deter-
mine the exact six hits made by each
competitor?
