problem

In this problem only, assume that s1=4s_{1}=4 and that exactly one board square, say square number nn, is marked with an arrow. Determine all choices of nn that maximize the average distance in squares the first player will travel in his first two turns.
Plain-text mathematical notation (without MathML)
In this problem only, assume that s₁=4 and that exactly one board square, say square number n, is marked with an arrow. Determine all choices of n that maximize the average distance in squares the first player will travel in his first two turns.
Original LaTeX notation
In this problem only, assume that $s_{1}=4$ and that exactly one board square, say square number $n$, is marked with an arrow. Determine all choices of $n$ that maximize the average distance in squares the first player will travel in his first two turns.
