He had once lived in Bologna, Italy, a king named Pompous IV, who mortally hated his predecessor, Pompous III. He even decided to remove the number 3 in the territory of his state. So the number following 2 was immediately 4; another number after 29 was 40 and so on.
Question: What number in Bologna corresponds to our 33?
The easiest way to do this is:
Our numbers: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10
Pompousa: 1 2 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11
Our numbers: 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22
Pompousa: 12 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 24 25
Our numbers: 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 33 34
Pompousa: 26 27 28 29 40 41 42 44 45 46 47
