Explanation: In a complete graph which is (n-1) regular (where n is the number of vertices) has edges n*(n-1)/2. In the graph n vertices are adjacent to n-1 vertices and an edge contributes two degree so dividing by 2. Hence, in a d regular graph number of edges will be n*d/2 = 46*8/2 = 184.10. An undirected graph G has bit strings of length 100 in its vertices and there is an edge between vertex u and vertex v if and only if u and v differ in exactly one bit position. Determine the ratio of the chromatic number of G to the diameter of G?
a) 1/2101
b) 1/50
c) 1/100
d) 1/20
