1) One hundred doors are numbered 1 through 100.
They are all closed to start with. Now someone start to call out number: 1. All doors numbered multiples of 1 will switch state, (in this case, all doors will open). Then he calls out 2, all doors numbered multiples of 2 will switch state, (all even doors will close). Then he calls out 3, 4, 5 and so on, till 100.
When he calls a number, the doors numbered multiple of that number will switch state.
Question : At the end, how many doors are open and how many doors are closed?
