The search for the missing peso:

May nakitra kang t-shirt worth P97.00

Dahil wala kang pera naghiram ka ng P50 sa mom mo at P50 sa dad mo, so may p100 ka na.

Since P97 lng ung t-shirt, may sukli ka pang P3.00

Binalik mo ung P1.00 sa mom mo at P1.00 sa dad mo

Tapos yung P1 na sayo.

E di may utang ka nlang na P49.00 sa mom mo at P49.00 sa dad mo

==========
P49 + P49 = P98
+1 na nasa sayo = P99

Di ba dapat P100 total cash? Nasaan ang P1.00???

:D

[XTO]

P0.50 nasa mom at another P0.50 sa dad. kasi P98 lahat ng nabayad sa kanila eh P97 lang ang t-shirt.

i got this from a friend a couple of years back
so there are 3 switches outside a room.
one of which turns the light on inside the room
problem is you dont know which one turns the light on.
to see if you have pressed the right switch you
have to open the door to the room
there is no way to find out if the light is on unless
you open the door

rule :
you can only open the door once

will be back with the asnwer on sunday? :D

[cutedoc]

^ open the door first before you switch on the light=p

[GerardTagayty]

which one? im sorry kulang yun rule. you cannot pala choose another swith after you open the door. :D

the last switch you press will be your last choice :D

[kinyo]

iirc ... it is allowed to touch the bulb after door opens?

[AnuVaYan]

which one? im sorry kulang yun rule. you cannot pala choose another swith after you open the door. :D

the last switch you press will be your last choice :D

ibig sabihin pag binuksan mo yung pinto yun na yung tamang switch? as in naka on na yung ilaw?

I have a solution pero may chance na kailanganin mo pa ulit mag switch even after mabuksan pinto.

click the first switch, pabayaan mo lang ng mga 1 minute.
patayin mo, tapos click mo yung next

buksan mo yung pinto, kung naka ilaw na e di yung second switch ang tama, kung hindi pa rin, feel mo yung bulb, kung mainit, yung first switch yung tama, kung hindi, malamang yung last switch kasi kung hindi pa rin e di pundido yung ilaw hehe.

so may chance nga na kailangan mo pa ulit palitan yung switch after mo buksan pinto.

Great riddle. And to solve it, its simple.
1st, turn the first light switch and leave it on for ten minutes, then turn it off.
2nd, turn on the second light switch and leave it on.
Now go into the room. If light is on, then it is the second switch, If not, but the lightbulb is warm, then it is the first switch. If the light is off and the bulb is cool, then it is the third switch.

How is that?

Here's another:

You have a 3 quart and a 5 quart bottles, and an infinite supply of water. How can you measure out exactly 4 quarts of water?

Do we have to light the room when we enter or not?
Kung ganun e why not press all the switch para siguradong may ilaw, hehe.

Fill the 3-quart bottle with water then pour it in the 5-quart bottle twice, then dispose the water in the 5-quart bottle. After that, pour remaining quart in the 3-quart bottle in the 5-quart bottle plus another full 3-quart bottle to have a 4 quart water in the 5-quart bottle.
Hehe, ang gulo! Naaalala ko tuloy si Michael Fajatin!

The objective there is to determine which among the 3 switches lights the bulb in just a single entry into the room.

Fill the 3-quart bottle with water then pour it in the 5-quart bottle twice, then dispose the water in the 5-quart bottle. After that, pour remaining quart in the 3-quart bottle in the 5-quart bottle plus another full 3-quart bottle to have a 4 quart water in the 5-quart bottle.
Hehe, ang gulo! Naaalala ko tuloy si Michael Fajatin!

Clue: You only have to empty the 5-quart bottle once.

good job leinathan and anuvayan! :D

hanapin ko yun notebook ko from work. mga ginamit namain sa problem solving skills ko sa work... dami nun... dami pa rin unanswered lol

eto, nasira ulo ko sa kakasolve nong college ako

there are 10 gold mines
each gold mine has 10 gold bars
all the gold bars from all the gold mines weigh 10kg
except for one whose gold bars weigh 9kg
you are given a weighing scale and are allowed only one reading

how will you know which of the goldmines has the 9kg gold bars?

[cutedoc]

fill the 3 quart bottle 3 times, them get water from there using the 5 quarts bottle now youve got 4 quarts... 3 x 3 = 9 - 5 = 4 quarts=p

anong klaseng scale ito? ito ba yung balance scale parang yung sa libra symbol? kung ganun, alternate mo lagyan ng gold yung scales, the moment na hindi nag balance yung scale, yung huling nilagay mo sa mas magaang/nakataas na scale yun yung 9kg. technically one reading pa rin ito, kasi hindi mo naman ni re-reload di ba? hehehe

fill the 3 quart bottle 3 times, them get water from there using the 5 quarts bottle now youve got 4 quarts... 3 x 3 = 9 - 5 = 4 quarts=p

How on earth could you fill a 3-quart bottle thrice if you only have one 3-quart bottle? Yes its true, arranging the method in order makes you fill the 3-quart bottle thrice, but how would you do it in order? If you seen Die Hard 3, you're close on solving the problem.

Here's another:

You have a 3 quart and a 5 quart bottles, and an infinite supply of water. How can you measure out exactly 4 quarts of water?

1. Fill-up the 5 quart bottle
2. Transfer content of 5quart bottle to the 3 quart bottle. This leaves 2 quarts in the 5 quart bottle
3. Empty the 3 quart bottle
4. Transfer the 2 quarts water from the 5quarts bottle to the 3 quart bottle. (note that 3 quart bottle now contains 2 quarts of water)
5. Fill-up 5 quart bottle again.
6. Transfer out 1 quart of water from the 5 quart bottle into the 3 quart bottle containing 2 quarts water. Now you have 4 quarts of water in the 5 quart bottle.
