dlex21: there is fuel scarcity and Ejiro has successfully broken into a warehouse containing 14kegs all filled with fuel.
Six of these kegs contain kerosene and the rest contain petrol.
Each keg contains five liters of fuel and is completely sealed.
If all the kegs are identical with no way of identifying which contains petrol or kerosene,
What is the minimum number of kegs that Ejiro must steal for him to be certain that he has at least 10litres of kerosene in his possession?

NOTE: answer with explanation o!!!

K=6kegs and P=8kegs,

since each peg contains 5L then K=30L and P=40L

for Ejiro to have atleast 10L of K in his possession then the Probability must be expressed.

therefore, Pr of having 1keg of kerosene = 6/14 (choosing randomly)
the Pr of having 2kegs (without replacement = 6/14 * 5/13)

since question said Pr of having atleast 10L or 2kegs then it means he can have 3kegs=15L. . .20L, 25L, 30L. and the Pr of having such would be
(6/14*5/13*1/3) for 15L. . .(6/14*5/13*1/3*3/11) for 20L
Re: Technical & Brain Teaser Questions Asked During Job Interviews by mbaemeka(m): 11:54pm On Sep 26, 2012
. . .etc

therefore the overall Pr would be of having 10L or 15L or 20L or 25L or 30L

which is Pr(10L)+Pr(15L)+. . .Pr(30L)

0.16+0.055+0.015+0.00299+0.00033= 0.178

hence Ejiro has a 17.8% chance of getting atleast 10L of kerosene.

f i o: Guys, solve this paradox: what happens when an irresistible force meet an immovable body?

something would give. . . one of them must change their names- either the irresistible force becomes resistable or the Immovable object becomes movable.

author=Classyzi]When my dad was interviewed, they asked him dis one-
supposing u'r a master of a house nd u av night guards watching over ur
house. It happened dat one of d guards came to u nd told u that he had a
dream dat thieves came into ur house, burgled ur house nd threatened to
kill u. How would u react to dis report?[/quote]

the best thing is to sack the particular night guard for sleeping while he is suppose to be securing the house

hardbody: 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.
