Can you solve the honeybee riddle? - Dan Finkel

Practice more problem-solving at brilliant.org/TedEd/
--
You’re a biologist on a mission to keep the rare honeybee Apis Trifecta from going extinct. The last 60 bees of the species are in your terrarium. You’ve already constructed wire frames of the appropriate size and shape. Now you need to turn them into working beehives by filling every hex with wax. Can you help the bees create producing hives? Dan Finkel shows how.

    Yeah, it's really good. And so is the sound design. I honestly can't tell if the animations were stop motion or just really good CG and it's frankly blowing my mind. Edit: Ok I think it was stop motion just because the animation frame rate is 1/2 the video frame rate.

    You can also arrange the bees in a spiral, you get the same number of hives but it's a bit more aesthetically pleasing and intuitive. Step 1. Put three bees around the center hex with none of them in adjacent hexes Step 2. From each of the first three bees, move two hexes out from the center, and then shift clockwise (or counter clockwise, doesn't matter) by one hex; that's where you'll put the next three bees. Step 3. From each of the second set of three bees, move out and clockwise (or counter clockwise if that's what you did in step 2) to the corners of the hive, where the last three bees will go. And there you go, a nice pretty bee spiral :)

    It’s actually way simpler than it seems. Step 1: Confirm the bees have green eyes Step 2: Place one bee into a hive Step 3: Have the bee transform the first hex, and then have it ask to be let out to the next hex, the bee must be allowed to do this because it has green eyes and is therefore allowed to leave Step 4: Wait until it transforms all of the hives Step 5: Place another bee in the hive to make a queen Step 6: Repeat the process with each hive having a worker and a queen Step 7: 60 original bees/ 2 bees in every hive= 30 hives

    There is another way of placing the bees. Place the 3 bees for the 7 hex hives the same way that we did and then place the remaining 6 in one of the 6 hexes of each side. I evaluated it that way. I tried going further than 54 hex hive but the question explicitly showed a 54 hex hive so...🤷

    I actually hit on a different pattern using a completely different approach to construction! I stuck my little triangle formation in the middle, and then three non-adjacent corners of the hive. I used the remaining 3 bees in the third 'ring' with 3-fold symmetry (play with it - there's essentially only 2 places they can go :) ) to complete.

    Great problem! This is actually more difficult than I thought, and I did not get the optimal solution on my own. My solution involves 12 bees in star configuration (leaving the center empty, 4 on each star edge), and it can do 4 hive as 60 / (12 + 1) = 4 with 8 remains (at this point, I kind of aware that it might not be the most efficient way as the 4 on the line are next to each other (and the fact that there are 8 remains, TedEd riddles are usually resolved in nice numbers and probably has no remains :)). My thought process starts the same as the provided solution as I also realized 3 bees are required to populate the smallest 7 blocks hive. However, I did not realize the immutability of total perimeters. When I extend the 7-block case to larger hive, I just add 3 more on the corner (forming the star configuration) as I know a 120-degree angle is enough to populate a parallelogram that its two edges can span. Anyway, the optimal solution really surprised me and is more elegant than I imaged.

    The solution is very simple if you do math olympiads. This type of problem is incredibly standard and called a monovariant since the perimeter of the figure is non-increasing at every step. Also, your observation of the "immutability of total perimeter" is wrong because the perimeter can decrease.
