You walk into a room and see a bird. On the bed are two dogs, four cats, a giraffe, five cows and a duck. They are also chickens flying above the bed. How many legs are on the floor?

This was an interview question in India I guess, let the
nairaland geniuses answer
A lady bought goods worth ₦200 and paid the shopkeeper
with a ₦1000 Note. The Shopkeeper had no change on him
so he went to another Shopkeeper John his neighbour and
collected ₦1000 change in ₦200 denominations, with which
he settled the lady and she left.
A little while later, John came back angrily after he
discovered the ₦1000 note he was given by the shopkeeper
was fake, and demanded a replacement. To avoid trouble,
the shopkeeper had to give John another ₦1000 and
destroyed the counterfeit which had no real value.
So Question for the genius...
How much has the Shopkeeper lost in
total?
(A) #2000 (B) #1200 (C) #1000 (D) #1800

Re: Technical & Brain Teaser Questions Asked During Job Interviews by yomide: 6:25pm On Feb 11, 2015
Loss Made by the Shopkeeper = Profit Made by the
Lady + Profit made by the next Shopkeeper John
Profit made by the lady = #800 Cash + #200 good = #1000
Profit Made by the John = #0 (Because he cancelled
the note-exchange that occurred earlier)
Loss made by the Shopkeeper = #1000 + #0 = #1000
Another way to look at it
At the beginning, the shopkeeper has say #0 and
goods worth # 200.
His net worth = 200
The lady gave him #1000 note with 0 real value.
His net worth = 200
He gets change for #1000 note from other shop
His net worth = #1200
He gives away # 200 worth goods, #800 in cash to the
lady.
His net worth = #1200 - 200- 800 = # 200
The other shop owner comes back and takes away #1000
from him.
His net worth = #200- #1000 = -800
His net worth dropped from #200 to # -800
Total loss = 1000

I have tons of these brain wrackers in a compendium of Logic texts, although it is in soft copy. Any interested NLander can send an email and I will send a copy to them. Although I must confess I never read beyond the first few pages. Fortunately I am gainfully employed and so would not b needing those question and answer sessions. Before I forget, Accenture embarrassed me with one of those questions way back in time, I felt very stupid when I got home and realized I goofed.

Sorry bro. This was years back or so I suppose. I lost the laptop housing those and the external hard drive got corrupted. If I can lay my hands on anything I will certainly oblige you. My apologies.
