Problem Statement

Official algorithmic problem description and constraints.

Open on CodeChef

After a long and fulfilling career, Chef has decided to retire to a farm out in the countryside.


This farm has several cows and chickens, but Chef doesn't know exactly how many of each there are β€” he can only see that there are π‘ legs in total across all the animals.

Note that each cow has 4 legs and each chicken has 2 legs, and it is guaranteed that π‘


N is even.

With π‘ legs in total, what's the minimum possible number of animals that can be present on the farm?

Solutions & Walkthrough

Detailed video explanations, mathematical intuition, and clean C++ implementation code.
