  • Answer

Svitlana writes the number 147 on a blackboard. Then, at any point, if the number on the blackboard is nn, she can perform one of the following three operations:

  • if nn is even, she can replace nn with n2\frac{n}{2};
  • if nn is odd, she can replace nn with n+2552\frac{n+255}{2}; and
  • if n≥64n \geq 64, she can replace nn with n−64n-64.

Compute the number of possible values that Svitlana can obtain by doing zero or more operations.
