Weeds In THE Field
Answer:
99 Days. The weeds double every day so if the field was full of weeds in a hundred days it would be half full the day before. Many people answer 50 because they halve the number 100.
Weighing Blueberries Puzzle Answer
Answer:
Divide the berries into three groups of three. Weight two of these groups and set the third group aside. If the one group is heavier than the other you know which group contains the heaviest berry. If both groups balance then the heaviest berry is in the third group.
Take the group with the heaviest berry and put two of the berries on the scale and set the third berry aside. If scales do not balance you know which berry is the heaviest. If the scales balance, then the third berry is the heaviest.
Blueberry Squares Answers
Answer:
There are more squares in a chess board than the 64 1 × 1 squares.
The squares start from 1 x 1 all the way up to 8 × 8.
Let us count them and find a way to add all of them.
- 1 × 1 squares – 8 squares across the width and 8 squares along the length = 8 × 8 = 64
- 2 × 2 squares – with the size of the square increasing by 1 square the number of squares across the width will be down to 7 and the ones along the length will also be down to 7. So, there are 7 × 7 = 49 (2 × 2) squares.
- 3 × 3 squares – 6 squares across the width and 6 along the length = 6 × 6 = 36 (3 × 3) squares.
- 4 × 4 squares – 5 squares across the width and 5 along the length = 5 × 5 = 25 (4 × 4) squares.
- 5 × 5 squares – 4 squares across the width and 4 along the length = 4 × 4 = 16 (5 × 5) squares.
- 6 × 6 squares – 3 squares across the width and 3 along the length = 3 × 3 = 9 (6 × 6) squares.
- 7 × 7 squares – 2 squares across the width and 2 along the length = 2 × 2 = 4 (7 × 7) squares.
- 8 × 8 squares – 1 square across the width and 1 along the length = 1 × 1 = 1 (8 × 8) square.
Therefore, the total number of squares in a chess board = 64 + 49 + 36 + 25 + 16 + 9 + 4 + 1 = 204
