Shit puzzle. At least three valid solutions.

I have a headache now, but I found it
>>675614887
but only 1 coconut half, not 2.
>>675614594
>>675614754
from the first equation we see each apple is 10
the second equation we find that each bundle of FOUR bananas is 4, therefore each banana is worth ONE
the third equation we find that TWO coconuts is 2, and therefore one coconut would only be worth ONE
in the final equation there is only ONE coconut (1) plus one apple (10) plus THREE bananas (3)
1 + 10 + 3 = 14

All three puzzles in this thread are shit.
>>675614941

How is that a shit puzzle, you retard?
If anything, a puzzle is better if it allows multiple approaches.

Fill the 3 gallon jug, thne empty it into the 5 gallon jug. Then fill the 3 gallon jug again and pour as much as you can into the 5 gallon jug. There should now be 1 gallon left in the 3 gallon jug.
>>675614941
I don't think so.
>>675614420
That 9 that you'd make would a curl. Think LED... A 9 would not be made that way.
>>675614592
Dyslexic
5 - 7 = -2 is the answer
>>675615424
Full up 3 gallon one twice. Pour into 5 gallon one twice. The second time the 5 gallon one will be full at some point, stop then and what's left in the 3 gallon jug is 'exactly' 1 gallon.
>>675615424
fill both halfway
so the 3 gal jug will have 1.5 gallons and the 5 gal jug will have 2.5
dump the 1.5 from 3 gal jug into the 5 gal jug
now the 5 gal jug will have 4 gallons
take the 5 gal jug and fill the 3 gal jug all the way full
now the 5 gal jug will only have one gallon left in it

Pour milk into both the 5 and 3 gallon jug until they are about half full. Then pour the content of the 5 gallon jug into the 3 gallon jug until it's full.
Then pour away about half the content of the 5 gallon jug.
Done.
As you can notice in the picture that ten coins have been arranged to form a triangle pointing upwards. What you have to do is move three coins and make that triangle point downwards. Can you do it in just 3 moves?
>>675614592
There's at least 3 fucking solutions and this is not one of them. Retard.

Weigh one.
Weigh the second.
See which one weighs more and now I know which one is poisonous.
It says one pill weigh's more and is poisonous.
The heavier one is the poisonous one.

Weigh 3 and 3. If equal, take remaining 2 and weigh. If there's a difference, weigh 1 and 1 from the heavier group. If same, the heavier is the 3rd one.
Try harder.
The store room of your house is locked with a certain lock that can be closed without a key but requires a key to open which you own (there is no duplicate key). You decide to move your old stuff in the storeroom. After keeping the things carefully, you lock it back again perfectly. The next day, a dead body is found in your closed store room. Since only you have the key to the store room and you live alone, the police suspects you as a murderer. You can’t understand anything when suddenly a thought strikes your mind. There is a possible way using which the dead body could have been placed by someone else.
Can you find that way so you can tell the police and prove yourself to be innocent?

I could solve it if I could just write it down on a piece of paper
>>675616004
put two aside, measure three against three.
if (one side is heavier) {
take two of the heavier side and measure
if (one side is heavier) {
this is the poisoned one
}
else {
it is the last one of the three, which was not measured
}
}
else {
measure the ones you put aside
the heavier one is the poisoned
}

something similar to this came up in my medical entrance exams.
it was approx. 1 minute per question.
>>675616004
Pick two groups of 3. Weigh them against each other. If they are equal, then the odd pill is in the two that you didn't weigh in the two groups of 3, and you can just compare them with your second weighing.
If one group of 3 is heavier than the other, pick two pills from that group and compare them on the scale. If they're the same, the pill you didn't weigh is the heavy one. If one is heavier than the other, it's the heavier one. \qed
>>675616636
That's the mistake I made. Look closer at the bananas.
>>675616004
take 4 pills and measure them, if the other 4 weigh more, then there you go
Once upon a time a farmer went to a market and purchased a terrorist, a belgian, and a bag of brussels sprouts. On his way home, the farmer came to the bank of a river and rented a boat. But in crossing the river by boat, the farmer could carry only himself and a single one of his purchases—the terrorist, the belgian, or the bag of brussels sprouts.
If left together, the terrorist would blow the begian up, or the belgian would eat the brussels sprouts.
The farmer's challenge was to carry himself and his purchases to the far bank of the river, leaving each purchase intact. How did he do it?
>>675616004
My first instinct was binary search which obviously needs three tests. Is there a name for the solution as a search algorithm or is it not computationally possible?
>>675616959

sprouts, return with belgian
terrorist

My hat has to be black.
Albert didn't know what color his hat was. Since there are only two white hats, that means that Albert and I are either both wearing black, or wearing a black and a white, because if Albert saw two white, he would know his is black.
Barry understands this, so if he saw that my hat was white, he would know his had to be black, or else Albert would know his own color.
Therefore, both Barry and I must be wearing black hats.
>>675616990
Black. To be uncertain, Albert has to see at least one black hat in front of him. If he says he doesn't know, Barry knows that if you wear a white hat, he must have black one. Since he doesn't know either, that means you must be wearing a black hat.
>>675616990
This one took me a while
If Albert saw 2 white hats he would have known his own was black. But he didn't. So he either saw 2 blacks or 1 white and 1 black
If Barry saw me wearing a white hat he would've known his was not white and therefore knew his was black.
For that reason, mine must be black.
>>675616959
That's an old one.
Take belgian.
Take terrorist.
Return belgian.
Take sprouts.
Take belgian.

Everything else you said is correct, but there's no way to know what colour hat Barry is wearing.

Well then.
Albert knows month. He says he doesn't know which is pretty obvious because any month he was told, has multiple days. But he also knows that Bernie doesn't know, because every day in that month is also in some other month. Because of that, it cannot be May or June. There are May 19 and June 18. Thus Albert could not be certain if Bernard didn't have exactly one of those dates. Now. Bernard sayd he really didn't know, but knows already based on Albert. That means he also excluded May and June and was left with only July and Auguts. And because he know now, it's obvious it ain't 14th. That way he wouldn't know. So he's left with July 16, August 15 and August 17. And finally Albert says he knows now. Thus he knows it's July because August has still 2 days. And voila, it's July 16.

How did you two come to this conclusion? I used facts 1, 2, and 5 to their fullest and then got stuck on the interconnection of the remaining three until I just did test cases for whether the son or daughter was youngest to fill in the rest of my table, where I found that the son being youngest was inconsistent with fact 4.

Bernard does not know - it is not the 18th or the 19th
Albert is sure Bernard does not know - it is not may or june (if it were, Bernard COULD know it to be the 18th or 19th and hence outright know the birthday)
For Bernard to then know which of the remaining 5 days it is, he must have been told the 16th.
