3443 | 689 | 1,382 readers submitted responses to the original Riddler Castle problem. As this is a simple answer to give, the response rate should be higher than 1,382, however I will assume 1,382. Assuming a non-even distribution of responses, weighted to the lower half, selecting a number which is half of the estimated responses should be a good chance of being both low and unique. To ensure that the number is unique, the number is reduced by 2. |
