8 rotations.................
"The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog."
'a' be the centre of A and 'b' be the centre of B. Initially the line ab is horizontal. Let the point of contact be c. acb is the order of points. Imagine the position of A after it makes half revolution around B. Now, ba is again horizontal, but c is not the point of contact. Initially acb was the order of points, but now bac is the order, ie, c has undergone some n+0.5 rotations around b(n is a non -ve integer). So half revolution implies n+0.5 rotations. One revolution implies 2n+1 rotations. We were ignoring this 1 rotation. Hope it is clear.
But, how do you prove that n = 1? Infact I think the order of the points a, b and c after half revolution depends on the radii of the circles. Comments...
@Madhu: why does it not work? I mean it was not a guess. I got it mathematically. May be I was wrong. But, can you explain?
In some other thread, Harish posted a question about some smart professor, but did not give the solution. Harish????

The full answer is as follows:
Let's number the Students #1, #2, and #3 where #1 is the one who yells out.(The color of his hat)
anyways, someone please elaborate.

Question 1: What is the next two rows of numbers?
Question 2: How was this reached?
1 - 1
1 1 - Once 1
2 1 - Twice 1
1 2 1 1 - Once 2, once 1
1 1 1 2 2 1 - Once 1, once 2, twice 1
