I'm a mathematician. N means "some number" and N+1 means a different number. So 5 boys and 6 girls will pair up best they can this week. Boy 1 with Girl 1, 2 with 2, leaving girl 6 with no partner. Next week Girl 6 will get with Boy 1, Girl 1 with Boy 2, etc. leaving Girl 5 with no partner. And so on until week 6 where the cycle starts over with 1-1.
