    ANSWER: THE HOBO WILL BE ABLE TO SMOKE 24 cigar butts

    25 cigar butts divided in to 5 = 5 cigars ---> then, the 5 cigar butts fall of of the 5 cigars he made

    Which makes another cigar, that he smokes and leaves 1 cigar butt behind

    Hope this is the right answer

    Please reply

    Thanks
