1. How many children are born every day? ANSWER: Uncountable. It can only be estimated. That's why we have surveys and statistics. 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? ANSWER: Egg will always break. The optimal way is not to try at all so as to save the eggs. 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.” ANSWER: Don't bother too much. Split the coins into 2 piles 50:50. No matter how many heads or tails are facing up in each pile, the total number of heads or tails will be the same because all the coins have 1 head and 1 tail each. 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? ANSWER: Open the one that is labelled Apples and it must either be Oranges or Mixed. If it is Oranges, then the one labelled Mixed actually contains Apples and the one labelled Oranges actually contains Mixed. But, if it contains Mixed, then the one labelled Oranges actually contains Apples and the one labelled Mixed actually contains Oranges. 5 Likes |

1. Babies are born not children 2.no matter the height the eggs will crash 3.you can't split without touching them 1 Like |

Psoul:1. You can't know the exact number for sure, but babies are born daily not children so the answer is 0. 2. The optimal solution is by not dropping any of the eggs. Dropping it from all floors will break the egg. 3. This one is simple just split them into the two pile randomly you will still have thesame number of heads. How? They asked you should split so as you will have thesame number of head not thesame number of head ups. 4. This one is impossible. My answer will be Apple cannot be incorrectly labeled. They didn't say it was apple fruit, I am writing an exam in Apple and I would rather choose to identify the Apple as a product and not a phone. 2 Likes 1 Share |

1. Babies are born. Children have already grown. 2. An egg will. Break from virtually any height except the floor 3. Sort each pile into 50/50. Notice they didn't say the heads side must be facing up! ( U just assumed that) 4. U must open the box labelled apples&oranges first then U can easily figure the others out without opening. 1 Like |

1. At least zero 2. Once it is broken you can't have it again. However if you insist, a little ladder and some measurements could help. 3. Each sides have at least a head, just take 50:50 4. Old method, deep your hand and scramble around. If most items feels the same. (Apple is smooth, oranges are rough). Then you've gotten the clue, since all boxes are labeled incorrectly. E.g. Box A = Tag (A and O) Box B = Tag O Box C = Tag A Box B is touched and scramble around, having both smooth and rough. (Apple and oranges). It simply means it should bear tag (A and O). In that case Box C is incorrect (since the question says all boxes are labeled incorrectly) and will be given to Box A, the left over will be given to Box C |

1: Zero children born everyday 2: Take one egg to the first floor and drop it, if it breaks then you have your answer, i.e it will break at every other floor. If it doesn't break then you move on to the next floor until it breaks and you have your answer. 3: Divide the coins equally as there is no way to know which is heads or tail. 4. Since all the boxes have been mislabeled, yes I can label the other boxes after picking a fruit from one of them and visually identifying it. |

Re: Can You Answer These Tricky Job Interview Questions From Apple Inc? by TeraHawks: 2:39pm On Apr 14, 2021 |
- Babies are born everyday not children. - Boil one egg and drop it starting from the lowest floor. The floor that breaks the boiled egg is the answer. - For every head you pick, line up 9 tails behind it. - You open the first box and feel the fruits inside; you can tell if its one or both fruits inside the box. If the box contains one fruit say orange, it means the other box labeled orange actually contains apples and as such the other box contains both apples and oranges. If the first box contains both oranges and apples, then the other boxes labeled orange and apple actually contain the opposites. QED. |

2. Tire the egg to a thread.

1. Impossible for anyone to give an accurate value. 2. I will set up my design such as attaching the egg in a mini shute to descend it or a balloon containing an egg that will descend slowly with it. This will be done from the highest floor available. 3. Simply sharing the coins into two equal parts. 4. I will select a fruit from the box wrongly labelled as orange. If I'm lucky to still pick an orange, it will be correctly labelled as apple/orange. Then the box labelled wrongly as apple will be corrected as orange and the third box wrongly labelled apple/orange corrected as apple. This is what I will go with in the heat of the interview |

These are purely AI tests that are meant to challenge your brain and see how you would respond to critical challenging issues that would require more than just academic intellect to handle. There's usually no Yes or No answer to these kind of questions. You just let your brain solve the puzzle. Interestingly, these are also the type of examinations that intelligence organizations give to people newly recruited into espionage, especially for those in field operations. Though theirs are usually in the form of practical or demonstrative tests, not necessarily written tests. And one is expected to pass such tests before they're even considered eligible for enlistment as field agent. I was reading the other day of how Mossad of Israel recruits its operatives. In one such practical examination a Mossad candidate for recruitment was ordered to approach a team of six heavily armed soldiers stationed at a military base and to, without risking his own life in the process or attracting attention to his mission, abduct one of the soldiers and deliver him safely to a Mossad safe house. Carrying out this mission successfully means that the candidate passed the test and therefore would be recruited as a Mossad officer. Failing on the mission, on the other hand, means automatic disqualification. This was a particularly dangerous mission, one that could have led to him being killed by the team of apparently well trained special forces soldiers. But he indeed succeeded and had the target abducted and brought safely to his handlers at the Mossad house. It turned out the soldier being abducted was in fact a member of the Mossad recruitment team and knew of the mission all along. But the young Mossad trainee did not know this. I was left in awe reading how he had plotted the very delicate but intelligent moves that helped him succeed on the mission. |
