Since it takes two to shake hands, no odd number of people can handshake, since one must be left out. Therefore 99 people cannot shake hands. Unless "handshake" means something unusual here, which seems unlikely, as it is the only handshaking activity where you can count the handshakes.

What utter nonsense! 3 people: A, B and C can shake hands. AB shake hands, AC shake hands and BC shake hands. And the last time I looked 3 was still classified as an odd number.
The correct answer is 99*98/2 = 4851
Perhaps 9,900 As in you shake with 99 other people, then the next person does the same. So each of the 100 people do 99 shakes. 99 x 100 = 9,900

Well, darling, 18 goes into 99 a total of 5 times. But let's not forget about that pesky little remainder of 9 hanging out at the end, just causing a ruckus. So, technically, 18 goes into 99 exactly 5 times with a remainder of 9. Hope that clears things up for you!
