O tej książce

An Indian boy untangles a mathematical conundrum to win a place at the Rajah's court.In ancient India, a boy named Bhagat travels to the Rajah's city, hoping to ensure his family's prosperity by winning a place at court as a singer. Bhagat carries his family's entire fortune--a single coin and a chain of seven golden rings--to pay for his lodging. But when the innkeeper demands one ring per night, and every link snipped costs one coin, how can Bhagat both break the chain and avoid overpaying? His solution points the way to an unexpected triumph, and offers readers a lesson in binary numbers.
