Talk:2009 AIME II Problems/Problem 4

I deleted the solution by God of Math, as I found it identical to the first one. (The deleted solution can still be seen in the page history.) Instead, I wrote an alternate solution that actually differs from the first one. --Misof 17:14, 9 April 2009 (UTC)

Wouldn't the ambiguity be automatically resolved by the fact that the problem would be impossible to solve if the first possibility is assumed?
