I must confess that I never solved the old Mawane's puzzle (in the previous page) but now took it under rethinking and actually managed to solve it today. Was fun during some boring lectures. =)
Now I checked the answerlink and my method wasn't at least completely same as in those (several different) solutions, but I guess there were a bit same idea. I didn't orka to go them very well through though. Those answerlinksolutions used more mathematical methods, I just formed big graphical table of numbers and used there some certain rules to eliminate possiblities.

But someone solve the balloon battle, it's ez! =)

Got the same answers as everyone above.

Have to say that i can easily see people missing those questions if they read too fast or just don't think enough.

I created this one, so it should be ez and you can help yourself of Excel.

I have v boards, w bricks, x steel beams, y windows et z dollars.
If I exchange them, I can get 20 boards/bricks for my 10 steel beams /windows and 5 steel beams/windows for my 10 boards/bricks. I can exchange only multiples of 10.
If i sell 1 unit of each, I get 5:5:10:10 dollars.
If 1 building worth vwxyz resources, what is the formula to maximize my number of buildings?
