每周一题:房屋的号码

今年Wraparound Close区的教区议会选举竞争异常激烈。这条路的名字来源于连续的房屋编号“环绕”小区——从一侧的起点的1号,到小区尽头的死胡同的单个房屋,再回到另一侧,使得编号最高的房屋(小于100)正对着1号。

候选人Leah Valone知道她可以依靠她所在街道一侧的每个人的选票。她的对手,Stan Doffish(与Leah正对面居住,房屋编号正好大45%)知道他那一侧的每个人都会投票给他。唯一尚未决定选票的是Belle Wether,她住在路尽头的一所房屋里。

Belle的房屋号码是多少?

原文:

The parish council election for the Wraparound Close ward is fiercely contested this year. The road gets its name from the fact that the consecutive house numbers “wrap around” the close – from 1 at the start of one side, up to the single house at the dead end of the close, and back along the other side so that the highest numbered house (which is less than 100) is opposite number 1.

Candidate Leah Valone knows she can count on the votes of everyone on her side of the street. Her opponent, Stan Doffish, (who lives directly opposite Leah, with a house number that is exactly 45 per cent larger) knows that everyone on his side will vote for him. The only undecided voter is Belle Wether, who lives in the single house at the dead end.

What is Belle’s house number?
