Six glasses are in a row. The first three are filled with milk and the last three are empty. By moving only one glass, can you arrange them so that the full and the empty glasses alternate?
I am thinking of a five-digit number such that:
The first and last digits are the same, their submission is an even number and multiplication is an odd number and is equal to the fourth number. Subtract five from it and we obtain the second number. Then divide into exact halves and we get the 3rd number.
Bea Smith, Vera Bennett, Franky Doyle and Doreen Anderson were in Wentworth Prison for murder. But their behaviour in the jails is appreciated by the warden and the warden decided to give all these 4 prisoners 11 cupcakes. They all like cupcakes and they had all cupcakes in no matter of time but they do not know how many cupcakes each individual had. Therefore Bea started the conversation Bea: "Hey T-Vera, did you have more cupcakes than I had ?"Vera: "I do not know girl, Hey Franky, did you have more cupcakes than I had ?".Franky: "I do not know"Doreen replied instantly: "I know how exactly how many cupcakes each of you had?" So can you tell how many cupcakes each of them had?
Three ants are sitting at the three corners of an equilateral triangle. Each ant starts randomly picks a direction and starts to move along the edge of the triangle. What is the probability that none of the ants collide?
If a shopkeeper can only place the weights on one side of the common balance. For example, if he has weights 1 and 3 then he can measure 1, 3 and 4 only. Now the question is how many minimum weights and names of the weights you will need to measure all weights from 1 to 1000? This is a fairly simple problem and very easy to prove also.
