Problem 1

  • Final day 1

The ship Meridiano do Bacalhau does its fishing business during 6464 days. Each day the capitain chooses a direction which may be either north or south and the ship sails that direction in that day. On the first day of business the ship sails 11 mile, on the second day sails 22 miles; generally, on the nn -th day it sails nn miles. After of the 6464 -th day, the ship was 20142014 miles north from its initial position. What is the greatest number of days that the ship could have sailed south?
