let the total no of breads be x.
1st man 2nd man
x- (x/2) – 1/2 – 1/2((x-1)/2) – 1/2 ….. so on.
ans is 31.
first ate : 15.5 + .5 = 16 remaining 15
second ate : 7.5+0.5 = 8 remaining 7.
third ate : 3.5 +0.5 = 4 remaining 3.
fourth ate : 1.5 + 0.5 = 2 remaining 1
fifth ate : 0.5 + 0.5 = 1 remaining 0

let square be x (squares are 4 sides)
i.e., X+X+X+X=4X
4X+3=1460
4X=1460-3
4X=1457
X=364.25

Total game played= 60
%won =30%
Total won= 60*30/100 i.e. 18
now team plays x games and win all of those to increase the
average to 50%.
So,
(60+x)*50/100=18+x
(60+x)/2=18+x
60+x=36+2x
24=x
So the final answer is 24.

Here is the solution to the given version of the puzzle (9 balls, one is heavier, need to identify oddball), where we label the balls A, B, …, I:

1. Weigh ABC versus DEF.

Scenario a: If these (1) balance, then we know the oddball is one of G, H, I.

2. Weigh G versus H.

Scenario a.i: If these (2) balance, the oddball is I.

Scenario a.ii: If these (2) do not balance, the heavier one is the oddball.

Scenario b: If these (1) do not balance, then the oddball is on the heavier side. For simplicity, assume the ABC side is heavier, so the oddball is one of A, B, C.

2. Weigh A versus B.

Scenario b.i: If these (2) balance, the oddball is C.

Scenario b.ii: If these (2) do not balance, the heavier one is the oddball.

answer is maximum of 2.

They’ll never meet unless some of them stop and other continue to run

414 Rs
1.2*37.8=45.36=46 sq.feet
46*9=414 RS

= (1 * 5! * 2!) * 3 + ( 2! * 5 ! * 1) * 3 + ( 3! * 5! ) + ( 5! * 3! )

10 x 27=270
