5 Pirates, 100 Coins

A greedy captain's dilemma

📖Story

5 pirates find a chest with 100 gold coins!

They are ranked 1 (most senior) to 5 (most junior). The most senior pirate proposes how to split the coins. Then ALL pirates vote — if at least half agree, the split happens. If not, the proposer walks the plank 🏄 and the next pirate proposes.
