__________
1. From the box labelled apples & bananas, pick a fuit.
2. If it is an apple, mark that box as only apples, since the labels are incorrect. Same if you picked the bananas out of the box instead of apples.
3. Switch the other two boxes : apples & bananas and the other box labels around, and you have the correct set of labels.
3FS is correct.Quote:

Bummer too, as I was going to offer 10 pts for each question I couldn't answer...
dump all the fruit into the one marked apples and bananas then select one after and put it in it's appropriate container.Quote:

The applicants were not allowed to communicate in any way. Their task was to assemble outside, in a line, with those wearing red caps on one side and those wearing green on the other.
How did this achieve this?
__________
The first two out stood anywhere they liked.
The next applicant looked at the line so far, if all of the caps were the same colour, they stood at either end of the line. Otherwise they stood at the position where the colours of the caps changed from red to green.
Persons # 1 and 2 walk forward and turn around to face the others.Quote:

How many revolutions must the largest cog make before each of the cogs is back in its starting position?
__________
The largest cog will do 96 rotations.
Actually, I meant if person #1 and #2 have the same or different colors, he stands to either side regardless. Then, everybody follows suit, joining in where the 2 colors meet.Quote:

it's simply a matter of finding a number that has all of the number of teeth is divisors ... that being said it's to boring a task for me to plug away at.
the largest cog will do 96 rotation
the 45 teeth cog will do 352
the 40 teeth cog will do 396
the 32 teeth cog will do 495
