New one guyz

There is a table on which 20 coins are placed. You also
know that there are 10 coins with heads up, and 10 coins
with tails up. You are blind folded and there is no way to
determine which side is up by rubbing, etc.
Your task is to create two groups of coins, each having
the same number of heads and tails. You may only move
or flip coins. How can you accomplish this while being
blindfolded?

Cc: 3rdlegxxx, naturalwaves, amicable24, EOOJ
since there that 1 coin contains 1 hand on one side and 1 tail at the other side so since 10 coin has 10 heads up and 10 coins has 10 tails up it now means that they are equal and no need to select them again.. so my answer is leave it like that..

Jack is looking at Anne, but Anne is looking at George.
Jack is married, but George is not. Is a married person
looking at an unmarried person?

A) Yes

B) No

C) Cannot be determined

Solution
Let Jack be A, Anne A/B and George B
where A is married, B is Single and A/B is married or single

Then Jack looking at Anne and Annie looking at George is
A --->A/B --->B
It then could be AA, AB, AB, or BB
AA = married person looking at a married person
AB = Married person looking at an unmarried person
BB = single person looking at a single person

Annie being married or single has a probability of 50% and the probability of a married person looking at a unmarried person is also 50% giving us a probability ratio of 50/50 = 1

The answer is A) Yes

cos if Anne is married and jack is looking at her, she is looking at George who is single
if Annie is single, then jack who is married is looking at her

Therefore, a married person is looking at an umarried person

Hi guys am back again with puzzles.

1: Which set of letters is the odd one out?
ADE
ILM
RUV
EHI
VYZ
JLM
FIJ

2: Which is the odd one out?
Pupil, Cornea, Irish, Retina, cochlea

3: What is wider than life itself
Longer than forever
So simple it's complicated
Travels but never leaves the spot
Puts others in danger but no one gets hurt
And reaches to worlds unknown?

4: A man went into a party and drank some of the punch.
He then left early. Everyone at the party who drunk the
punch subsequently died of poisoning. Why did the
man not die?

JLM .... out of sync
Irish .... if not a typo then Irish cannot be found in a human head, the rest belong to the eye and ear.
Time
The Ice cubes were poisoned.

Gracias to the people that responded first correctly.
