About this lesson

John needs a red and a green robot. He can buy a pack of three, and his friend will swap a pink robot for a green one. Which pack lets him walk away with both colours he needs? The trick is recognising the two-step route: get red from the pack directly, and use the pink in the same pack to trade for green.
