so take half of the number of wheels you are given.  think you will find it is the smallest of the numbers given

anonymous · Answer

half of 5050 is $5050\div 2=2525$ so i was mistaken, you have fewer handlebars

p0sitr0n · Answer

the limit of the bycylces are thehandlebars, as they are in lesser quantities than any others
5050/2 =2525 > 2455
a. 2455
