this is just to test how crazy some folks can think......... how useless some mathematical interpretations can be..........who know know say, egg that lands on a floor,even from liitle height has 99.9% chances of breaking....this is mutually Exclusive........ egg either breaks/cracks or it is not thrown at all........... having a thrown egg and an uncracked or broken egg. are two events that can not hold...... i got the one below from the internet, all of u working maths for this nonsense are just giving urself unnecessary headache unless u wld end up getting. nothing at the tail end, all it takes is ur ability to reason and how to manage situations if u are eventually employed.... SAW THIS ON A SITE NOW...... http://datagenetics.com/blog/july22012/index.html Once this egg is broken, that’s it, no more egg. So, we really have no other choice but to start at floor 1. If it survives, great, we go up to floor 2 and try again, then floor 3 … all the way up the building; one floor at a time. Eventually the egg will break* and we’ll have a solution. For example, if it breaks on floor 57, we know that the highest floor that an egg can withstand a drop from is floor 56. There’s no other one egg solution. Sure, if we’d been feeling lucky we could have gone up the floors in two’s but imagine if the egg broke on floor 16; we have no way of knowing if it would have also |

MissTechy: Babies are born not children MissTechy: carefully place it on the ground/floor (thats the optimal solution) MissTechy: simply turn up 45 coins in each pile MissTechy: just name the box of the picked fruit rightly and changed the names of the other two since they are all named wrongly 1 Like 1 Share |

These can't be interview questions but here goes. 1. How many children are born every day?None, we born once. 2. If you have 2 eggs, and you want to figure out what’s the highest floor from which you can drop the egg without breaking it, how would you do it? What’s the optimal solution?The egg or an egg? You can drop an egg from any floor without having to break it first. The impact upon landing will break it. 3.You have 100 coins laying flat on a table, each with a head side and a tail side. 10 of them are heads up, 90 are tails up. You can’t feel, see or in any other way find out which side is up. Split the coins into two piles such that there are the same number of heads in each pile.”separate into 50 on either sides. All coins have a head on one side. 4. There are three boxes, one contains only apples, one contains only oranges, and one contains both apples and oranges. The boxes have been incorrectly labeled such that no label identifies the actual contents of the box it labels. Opening just one box, and without looking in the box, you take out one piece of fruit. By looking at the fruit, how can you immediately label all of the boxes correctly?Feel the contents. If items feel different - mixed box. If all same, pick one label box as what you picked. |

ollyruffy: Lol.... One thing you all need to realise about questions like this is that the answers are not far fetched. Most times the answers are inside the questions. You don't need calculators to solve brain teasers. They are meant to separate people with High IQ from those with Low IQ. Simple. 1 Like |

1. NONE. A baby is born just once, not everday! 2. An egg cannot break - "it" - the floor. 3. You are only asked to make sure the number of heads are equal. No mention is made of the head facing upwards or not, so simply count out 50 and ure a go! 4. This one is a little tricky... 1 Like |

[b][size=20pt]1.Number of Babies per day= Number of Safe Deliveries per Day 2.Start throwing from the Ground Floor Upwards Assuming it breaks on the 8th floor the Maximum height it can withstand is the 7th then.. . Answer might look too easy to be the answer but is actually Correct 3.The Question asked U to separate such that each has 50 heads and not 50 heads up each.. so just separate into 50-50 every coin got an Head 4.Open the box that is labeled "Apples and Oranges". You know that since none of the labels are correct, the box must either contain only apples, or only oranges. If u had removed an apple from the opened box. Therefore, that box is the "Apples Only" box. One of the two remaining boxes must be the "Oranges Only" box. However, one of them is labeled "Apples Only", and the other is labeled "Oranges Only". Therefore, the one labeled "Apples Only" is the box that contains only oranges, and the box labeled "Oranges Only" is the box that has both kinds of fruit.[/size][/b] 2 Likes |

I believe these questions are meant to find out how you reason and how you handle problems. I don't think you are meant to actually give a specific answer to this questions (there are no right or wrong answers, but your answer will reveal who you are (e.g. scientific mind, gambler, Joker, slowpoke, outside the box thinker, genius, legal mind, programer etc) . I believe what is being tested is how you approach problems, in what light do you see problems and how your thought process handles problems. And its going to vary from person to person, and the selected candidates will be the one that suits their companies culture....... These are my thoughts.. 2 Likes |
