Quiz - Mind Trap
Moderator: Moporators
Sorry about not updating for a while
Anyways, SveinR made no. 1, I'll give ribot correct in no. 2 (glass wasn't specified enough), ribot also made no. 3 and also 5 after a lot of tries (489)
This round I'll just use math questions while I sort out some new question from the game.
Standings:
11p: Zworqy
8p: ChuckleS
6p: djacosmo, ribot
4p: SveinR
2p: MagnusB, Ky.Jelly
1p: Sun, KD, jcl, Dariuz
Question 1: What is the last digit in 17^1996?
Question 2: Three friends has 5 tasks. All tasks must be done and all of them has to do at least one task. How many ways can they divide the tasks between them?
Question 3: The price to get into the museum is 10 dollars for grown ups and 5 dollars for children. One day there is 50 visitors and they get in total 350 dollars from people entering. How many adults visited the musuem that day?
Question 4: Dynamite is often used to "cut" down trees. To chop a tree that is 45 cms in diametre, you need 5 dynymitesticks. One on the north side, one in the south, one west, and one east. The fifth is placed in the side you want the tree to fall to. During the building of a damm, they had to chop a tree with the size mentioned above. A diver placed one stick on each side of the tree. Since the water was drifting towards south going 2 km/h, which side should the fifth stick be placed if the tree was to fell towards the north?
Question 5: 6 men and 6 woman are supposed to dance together. There are going to be 6 couples consisting of 1 man and 1 woman. In how many ways can they make these 6 couples?

i just had a thought, is there any point in posting the same answer as someone else because arnt they going to get the point for answering it first anyway

Finally, i solved them all!
I am used to be called the "mathemathic genius" by my friends...
Let's prove it:
1. 9
2. 83
3. 20
4. south (well, not a mathematic question)
5. 720
I hope i proved myself

Question 1: Two cars came driving. They stopped. Seven men left the cars and started walking along a path. It then started raining. Six of the men started going faster to get to their destination as fast as possible. The seventh didn't care. Ironically enough the seventh man didn't get wet, but all the other got soaked. All the men reached the destination at the same time. How can this be?
Question 2: Three friends has 5 tasks. All tasks must be done and all of them has to do at least one task. How many ways can they divide the tasks between them?
Question 3: Tom Benson introdused Ben Benson to his friend as "Uncle Ben". Ben Benson introdused Tom Benson as "Uncle Jan". Then one of their friends said; "If you are eachothers uncles, then you also are eachothers nephews". "That is correct" replied Tom. How can this be without braking the laws? (and they lived in England, OK )

4. no it wouldnt float down stream caus the water in a dam is like a lake, it would just bob to the surface where they would push it to the side and cut it up, (i should read the q properly in the future

1. I agree with the coffin theory
2. 147 (this time it must be correct)
3. Ben's parent have split, then ben's father marries again and have one child who marries (after some years) and have one boy called Tom. then Tom grows and decides to marry Ben's mother who is still alive and alone.
4. the diver should put the dynamite on his head and it'll solve the problem!!
5. 28 (I know that it was said beofre but that's the answer...)

MagnusB... your 6 against my 147... OK

Here are the different combinations:
F=Friend
T=Task
Fx = yT means that Friend nr. x does y tasks.
As you probably understand, it doesn't matter which task which friends does. The tasks don't even have numbers.
F=Friend
T=Task
Fx = yT means that Friend nr. x does y tasks.
Code: Select all
F1 = 2T F1 = 2T F1 = 1T
F2 = 2T F2 = 1T F2 = 2T
F3 = 1T F3 = 2T F3 = 2T
F1 = 3T F1 = 1T F1 = 1T
F2 = 1T F2 = 3T F2 = 3T
F3 = 1T F3 = 1T F3 = 1T
hmmm.... so if you are correct so i just didnt understand the question well cause its not clear enough....
I think that jalli meant that these ways are counted as different ways :
and if so... i should be correct...

Q4: It MUST be north!!!!! The extra dynamite should be placed in the direction you want the tree to fall, which was NORTH!!!!!!! And who cares about the f***ing water, it doesn't affect the tree until afterwards, anyway!!!!!!!!!!!!!
BUT, as I said before, you can't ignite dynamite underwater!!!!!!

3:tom is married to ben's mother's sister, and ben is married to tom's mother's sister. (if they have different mothers, they can even have the same father, and be brothers too, with same last name).

Question 4: Everything thats been said is right, you woulodnt be able to use dynamite underwater...but the water in the 'dam' cant be like a lake, apprantly its flowing at 2km/h probably because the dam isnt finished.
Anyway, like my first answer, you wouldnt need a 5th stick!

bs, dynamite can be lite under water and wil go of there as well, the fusses are water proof and the detonator is waterproofed by the explosive

ChuckleS made no. 1, 4 and 5. (The tree will not fall to any direction just float to the surface, Ky.Jelly also gets a point for that one, making that statement correctly). ribot made no. 3 and Swepsie made no. 2. 150 is the correct answer there.

Question 1: If you let 10 sigarettes burn, you can use the rests after them to make one new one. If you let 1000 sigaretts burn, how many extra sigarettes do you get?
Question 2: There is a certain club that is only for men. It has 600 members and 5% of these men has one earring. Out of the remaining 95% half of them has two earrings, and the other half has none. How many earrings are used in this club?
Question 3: Paul Papir works in a packaging firm. One day he recieved 4 different orders. Unluckily he mixed up the addresses. He therefore just put the address notes on the packages in random order. How big is the propability that exactly 3 packages has gotten correct address?
Question 4: A horse walks a certain distance each day. The funny thing is that 2 of the horses legs walk 30 kms and the two others almost 31kms each day. It seems that two of the horses legs are almost 1 km in front of the other two, but that is not the case. If this horse is normal, how can this be?
Question 5: What is 52219 factorized into prime numbers?

btw jalli, about cutting the trees, u asked which direction the tree was to fall, not where it was to float if nothing would catch the tree or whatever.

Here was the question:
Question 4: Dynamite is often used to "cut" down trees. To chop a tree that is 45 cms in diametre, you need 5 dynymitesticks. One on the north side, one in the south, one west, and one east. The fifth is placed in the side you want the tree to fall to. During the building of a damm, they had to chop a tree with the size mentioned above. A diver placed one stick on each side of the tree. Since the water was drifting towards south going 2 km/h, which side should the fifth stick be placed if the tree was to fell towards the north?
The answer was that it wouldn't fall to the north no matter what. It would just float to the surface.

so it would fall to the south, and the dynamite cant affect the directon of the fall? and i dont understand why it matters where it would float.
