Hello Jegadesh,
Nice Puzzles. See my reply below.
1.a tin sheet of 34 x 34 inch. It has to be put on a square of the same size.
the carpenter puts the nails in such a way that there r 35 nails on each side of the square.
find the total no of nails
Ans : 136 nails.
2.A and B starts palying a chess tournament with one match everyday.
The one who looses gives a chocolate to the other. at the end of the
tournament B gives 8 chocolates to A. But A says that "i have won more matches than
B and B has won 20 matches".
Find the total no of matches.
Ans : 48 matches.
3.There are a grp of people and lodges. Each lodge can have 3 members.Each member can
have two lodges. and any two lodges have one member in commom.Find the minimum no of
persons in the grp and the min no lodges .
4.A tour of nine days, starts with an amount travelled each day i.e: 20 km is added every day
example: if on the starting day:
he goes : x km
so 2nd day : x +20 km
third day : x+20+20
and so in till the ninth day after which the tour ends.
they complete tour is of 1850 km
a)find the distance travelled on the last day
b)find the distance travelled on the 4th day
Ans : First day - 50 kms
Second day - 50+205+20 = 275 kms (from 1st day to till date)
Third day - 50+205+205+20+20 = 500 kms ( " )
Fourth day - 50+205+205+205+20+20+20 = 725 kms ( " )
Fifth day - 50+205+205+205+205+20+20+20+20 = 950 kms. ( " )
Sixth day - 50+205+205+205+205+205+20+20+20+20+20 = 1175 kms ( " )
Seventh day - 50+205+205+205+205+205+205+20+20+20+20+20+20 = 1400 kms ( " )
Eighth day - 50+205+205+205+205+205+205+205+20+20+20+20+20+20 = 1625 kms ( " )
Nineth day - 50+205+205+205+205+205+205+205+205+20+20+20+20+20+20+20 = 1850 kms
Hence distance travelled last day is 1850 kms and distance travelled on the 4th day is 725 kms.
5.Four ladies do a alpha,beta, chen,gamma do course for "delphi" "dancing" "harp" together.
after the completion of the course they make the following prediction
