Dr. Uncle and Aunty came by for a surpise visit on Monday morning. They are from Chicago, and we hardly get to see them, but in the past month they have stopped over at our place twice!
Dr. Uncle is great and always brings good logical questions/puzzles to do.
Here is the latest one he brought on Monday. First one to solve both problems correctly will get a prize!
1. You went to a zoo where they had some birds and some animals. you asked the zookeeper how many birds and animals the zoo has. The zookeeper said we have 30 heads and 100 feet. So how many birds and animals do they have?
2. You are given $100 to buy 100 animals. Each cow is $10, each pig is $3, and each chicken is 50 cents. You have to buy atleast one of each animal – and the seller will pay the tax.
Good luck!
Alvida. Jai Mata Di.
I think i know the answer for first…
there are 20 animals and 10 birds…is that rite?
Yes… there are 20 animals and 10 birds for first
1. 20 animals and 10 birds is right
2. 5 cows @ $10 = $50
1 pig @ $3 = $3
94 chickens @ $0.50 = $47.00
total = 100 animals @ $100.
I win, i win! So watz my prize?
poonam, i sent you an email just now.
pareeka’s answers looks to be correct. she should get the prize has promised. is there any prizes for the second person to answer these questions correctly?
Did you know that my full name is Madhurima… Ab sonu nigam’s wife’s name is the same is a news to me…:D..
But the split.. OMG!! and not talking living together.. that would surely be hard!!!
Great job ladies for taking control:!:
Only one man was able to answer, and that too without pen or paper. That is my Neeraj.
Congrats Pareeka you will be awarded with a gift on Saturday.
I did know that your name was Madhurima.
I can’t believe about their split either, and they living together. That’s the first time I have heard that.
Cool…………. i wonder what it’s gonna be
Great! I missed it…
In any case I knew all the answers
Pareeka:!: Your gift will be virtual only
I missed it too:banghead: Oh well, better luck next time. This time, Pareeka could take the gift:grin:
yup ankur, its gonna be a virtual prize only…..still i wonder what it will be…….
Im sure you did know the answers (NOT!!!:no:)
:rotfl:
But no way to test that now
I knew all of them.. as they are provided above ;)
But Pareeka, don’t under-estimate Poonam… as she may buy you some Domain name (pareeka.com) and Web-Space… those are virtual things too
My own blog hey? Now that would be a very intersting prize indeed. Actually i have been tossing the idea of my own blog around myself, but have yet to follow through with the idea because of the time that would be required to maintain the blog……
Sorry Pareeka, I had thought that I would write over the weekend, and it didn’t happen.
Then I told myself the next post I will write, I will give her the gift, but then I forgot.
Next post — pakka!! Your gift is coming.
No worries Poonam. Take your time…..after all it does take time to come up with the perfect gift for the perfect person doesnt it?
:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:
Pareeka if u can write such big comments am sure u can write a bit for ur own blog too :P well so hurry up n get it done…
Kunal, I think thats probably the biggest comment that i’ve ever written since i’ve been commenting………..
As to the idea of creating my own blog……i’ll see……..which reminds me where’s ur blog huh? Whats your excuse?
My blog ! nah… i would hv no clue what to write… n on top if i do write no one comes n read then i am going to be
:banghead: lol so…
but i hv couple of ideas which i want to implement… some are like 80% done just the last 20% remaining…
neways what exactly do u do ?
What exactly do i do? hmmmm if ur meaning do i have some sort of computer background
then no
.
Job wise, im currently in Accounts Receivable department….and you wanna know the ironic part?…I absolutely hated accounting in uni. I get extremely bored here as the job is so easy but I probably shouldn’t complain as less on the job stress means i can concentrate better on my studies
The way i calculate it, another 18mths max. then im it’ll be bye bye accounting
After that i want to get into the financial sector….
Since you already have 80% of the ideas thought up that u want to implement mean that you will be starting ur own blog once you’ve thought of the other 20%?
Dont worry yaar, of course there’ll be people visiting your blog…….even if its purely out of obligation rather than any intense desire to read anything that you’ve written!:grin:
C’mon Kunal, dont be
:cry::censored:………you know i was only joking.
Perhaps you should start the blog with the 80% ideas that you already have and then implement the other 20% as they come to you……what do u think? Good idea?……yeah of course it is
:yes::yes:
I forgot to mention that i was doing my Masters in Applied Finance……its alot of
but the fiance sector in Australia is booming at the moment.
What about urself? U probably told us all during the blog meet but i have to confess that i’ve forgotten:oops:
I think you both (Kunal and Pareeka) should start your own blogs.
If you need any help from me, then do let me know.
I know that I would visit both blogs without any hesitation.
o ya i kn poonam u will def come :)
Pareeka: am a programmer… the idea i hv are not ab blogs… was thinking a few min back that i shud just take a few days off n work on them n get it done !!!
o ya ihv heard ab the current boom in aus… a lil surp that its not in the IT field…
hey u can mail me at 2kunal@vsnl.net …
Why the talk about emailing Kunal??
I won’t know what you guys are talking about if you start to email.
Think of this as your private email.
btw……..still waiting on my prize…..you’ve forgotten haven’t you?
:cry::cry::cry::cry::cry::cry::cry:
Your prize is awarded Pareeka.
How could I forget? Its just not possible.
