- Ans is 7
fst calculate totan num of balls.. since n bag contains n balls;
1+2+3+4+5+6+7+8+9+10+11+12+13=91
91/7=13 so 7 ballers get 13 balls equally..
1st boweler= bag_7+bag_6 = 13
2nd boweler= bag_8+bag_5 = 13
3rd boweler= bag_9+bag_4 = 13
4th boweler= bag_10+bag_3 = 13
5th boweler= bag_11+bag_2 = 13
6th boweler= bag_12+bag_1 = 13
7th boweler= bag_13 = 13
