A Tighter Fit (Posted on 2004-07-29) Difficulty: 3 of 5
A 10x10 square can obviously hold 100 unit circles (diameter=1) when arranged in rows and columns. What is the maximum number of non-overlapping unit circles a 10x10 square can hold if the circles are packed closer together?

I think it might work | Comment 10 of 20 |

I think it the answer is 100 because a 10 multiplied by 10 grid can hold only 100 even if it is close together
