Math problems, holiday parties. Guests get together. Touch each other. 903 ring. Ask how many people are at the drinking party. Two people don't touch at the same time.
Solution: There are X people at the drinking party.

The countable equation is:1+2+3+4+5+...+(x-2)+(x-1) = 903.

Then use Gaussian sum to solve this equation:

(x+ 1- 1)×(x- 1)/2 = 903

x(x- 1)/2=903

x(x- 1)= 1806

Finally x=43.

A: There were 43 people at the reception.
