Problem 19

Raashan, Sylvia, and Ted play the following game. Each starts with $$1$.

(For example, Raashan and Ted may each decide to give $$1$ to Sylvia, and Sylvia may decide to give her her dollar to Ted, at which point Raashan will have $$0$, Sylvia will have $$2$, and Ted will have $$1$, and that is the end of the first round of play. In the second round Rashaan has no money to give, but Sylvia and Ted might choose each other to give their $$1$ to, and the holdings will be the same at the end of the second round.)
