Gold For Every Date

Once Mandar forgot his mother in law's birthday. Obviously, as a universal rule, he got the punishment. His wife ordered, I want you to present gold weighing equal to date of day on which my mother would surprise visit to our home.

Now Mandar went to jeweler & ordered only 5 gold coins of different weights. What are the weights of those gold coins?

This is how he does!

Gold For Every Date Designed Smartly

What was that intellectual puzzle?

On whichever date she visits, he just presents those coins under which 1 is written. For example, if she visits on 25, he would give her coins weighing 16,8 & 1. And if she visits on 18, he would present her coins weighing 16 & 2! Great use of binary number system!

Proof 2+2=5

Proof 2 + 2 = 5

I think this is the misstep!

Equating Negative Number To Positive Numer

Proof : 2 + 2 !=5

Look what is done under square roots in red rectangles. At first, 4 - 9/2 = - 1/2 is squared to 1/4 & at second while taking square root of same 1/4, it's taken as + 1/2. So -1/2 converted to +1/2 by squaring followed by taking square root. This is certainly not 'fair' mathematically!

Actually square root of (5-9/2)^2 should have been - (5-9/2) = - 1/2!

Here is that attempt!

Proof 2 = 1

Can you figure out misstep in above?

Here it is figured out!

How Proof : 2 = 1 is Wrong

What was allowed?

Since a = b, then a - b = 0.

So we can't divide both sides by (a - b) on both sides to eliminate (a -b) since division by 0 is not defined or infinity!

Unfair Loss in Savings of Life

On his 20th birthday, Ajay started depositing Rs.500 in his saving box. His brother Vijay used to withdraw Rs.100 from the same box on his birthday every year. On his 60th birthday, Ajay opens his box & finds only Rs.1000 in it.

How this could be possible?

This is how it's possible

Having Birthday On Leap Day

What was looking impossible?

Since Ajay celebrates his birthday on 29th February, he used to deposit Rs.500 in saving box once in 4 years. From age 20 to 60, he celebrated only 10 birthdays saving only 500 x 10 = 5000.

But Vijay withdrawing Rs.100 every year means he took 100 x 40 = 4000 so far.

That's why only 5000 - 4000 = 1000 left in the box.

Leap Day birthday affecting life savings

'Sabrina and Samantha' Brain Teaser

Sabrina gave Samantha as many dollars as Samantha started out with. Samantha then gave Sabrina back as much as Sabrina had left. Sabrina then gave Samantha as back as many dollars as Samantha had left, which left Sabrina broke and gave Samantha a total of $80.00.

How much did Sabrina and Samantha have at the beginning of their exchange?

Find here how much!

Initial Amount Sabrina & Samantha had

But what was that?

This could be solved using simultaneous equations but going in reverse makes it easy.

At each stage, one's money is doubled. At last stage, Samantha doubled money to 80 by receiving 40 from Sabrina. So both had 40 before that.

How Sabrina had 40? Since Samantha gave her 20 at previous transaction. So Samantha had 40+20=60 & Sabrina had 20 before this transfer.

And how Samantha had 60? Since she received 30 from Sabrina at previous transfer. So Sabrina had 30+20=50 & Samantha had 30 before the transfer.

Hence at start , Sabrina had 50 & Samantha had 30!

Initially Sabrina had 50 & Samantha had 30!

Would You Help This Farmer ?

A farmer had 25 cows. To identify easily he numbered them from 1 to 25. Interestingly, each cow produces liters of milk equal to the respective number given. For example, a cow numbered 5 gives 5 liters of milk or a cow numbered 18 produces 18 liters of milk. Now that farmer had 5 sons. Farmer wants to share those 25 cows among his 5 sons with each son getting 5 cows. But he wants to make sure each son would get equal amount of milk.

How should he make 5 groups of cows to distribute among his sons?

Please, Help me!

This is what farmer need to do!

Fair Distribution of Farmer's Cows

What was the interesting?

First let's name 5 sons as A,B,C,D & E. Now look at the image below.

Just collect numbers surrounded by same shapes. If you observe carefully answer, a difference of 4 created at one place which is compensated at other 4. Each son would be getting 65 liters of milk.

Man Walking on Moving Escalator

A man can walk up a moving "up" escalator in 30 seconds. He can walk down this moving "up" escalator in 1-1/2 minutes. If his walking pace is the same going upstairs as downstairs, how long would it take him to climb the escalator if it was stationary? How long would it take him to go up the moving escalator if he stood still?

Man walking up & down on moving escalator

Calculated here!

Man on Stationary Escalator

What was asked to calculate?

Let L = length of stair , M = Man's speed & E = Elevator's speed.

Let's remind what we have learned in our school days.

Speed = Distance/Time

i.e.

Distance = Speed x Time

While moving 'up' along with upward moving elevator,

30(M+E) = L ......(1)

While moving 'down' against 'upward' moving elevator, man's speed has to be faster than elevator's speed so that he can reach down at the stair. Otherwise he would never reach down always falling short.

90(M-E) = L .......(2)

From (1) & (2), we get,

30M+30E=90M-90E

60M=120E

M=2E .....(3)

E=M/2 .....(4)

Putting (3) in (1),

45M=L

M=L/45

(Speed=Distance/Time)

Hence man alone needs 45 seconds to climb up that stationary elevator.

Stationary Escalator

Putting (4) in (1), gives,

E=L/90

(Speed=Distance/Time)

So elevator needs 90 seconds to push standing man up.

But what was the case?

Driver was the murderer!

He must be lying as ATMs were closed on 9-11-2016 after note demonetization in India.

Just A Spare Thought...

I always had this concept in my mind but absolutely no idea whether it's possible or not.

We know, light takes 8 minutes 20 seconds to travel from Earth to Sun. So if we are looking at Sun at any time it's 8 minutes 20 seconds old. Now if we place a very high power camera with a great optical zoom at few light years say 10 years from Earth & zoom at Earth then wouldn't it possible to observe what was going on Earth 10 years ago? Wouldn't it be a time machine only difference it's not taking us physically at that time.

I know it would be literally impossible to place such camera but who had thought communications without wires few centuries ago! Just a crazy thought shared.

Analyse The Pattern

If,

5 + 3 + 2 = 151012

9 + 2 + 4 = 183662

8 + 6 + 3 = 482466

5 + 4 + 5 = 202504.

Then,

7 + 2 + 5 = ??????

Answer is here!

Analysis of The Pattern

Find the question here!

Let's try to put it in mathematical equation,

a + b + C

1. First two digits of answer is product of first two digits a & b i.e. ab.

2. Next two digits of answer are formed by product of first & last digits i.e. a & c = ac.

3. For last two digits of answer, first & last digits are added & then multiplied by second

digit like (a+c) × b = cd. Now the places of digits of results are interchanged as dc.

With the same logic applied,

7 + 2 + 5 = 143542.
