Karnan died earlier; arjuna's last arrow just confirmed his death. :P
any restriction on number of times the balance can be used or maximum weight the balance can hold?Quote:

Should we also check whether the remaining quantity has 150 pounds of Gravel?
if yes,
1) weigh 45 pounds gravel using 15 pound standard weight and 30 pound gravel (that was already weighed). We now have 15 pound standard weight, 30 pound gravel, 45 pound gravel.
2) Weigh 90 pound gravel using 15 pound standard weight, 30 pound gravel, 45 pound gravel. We now have 15 pound standard weight, 30 pound gravel, 45 pound gravel, 90 pound gravel.
3) Check whether the remaining gravel weighs 15 pound using 15 pound standard weight.
2 steps to get 30 pound gravel and 5 steps to confirm whether the remaining gravel weighs 150 pound.
Too much of stress relief ! :)
Try this one for a change:
You are given a 4x4 matrix of 16 dots. How can you connect them using maximum number of lines without crossing or retracing a line already drawn without lifting your pen? A line is a vertical or horizontal connection between two adjacent dots. No diagonal lines!
Ohh.. sorry.. I forgot to mention that limitation is 3 attempts.Quote:

The answer must be 15 and the solution seems to be easy, unless I am missing something here :confused2:Quote:
