What could be the dates ?

October 20, 2015 by hit dalal 2 Comments

One guy had a habit of spending the money as per the day of the month, for example he will spend $18 on 18th of the month.

Once he spent, $63 in continuous 5 days, What could be the dates ?

 

What was the first day ?

Tried enough already?
Click here to See SolutionHide
Case 1)
lets assume all the days were of the same month, in that case
x + (x+1) + (x+2) + (x+3) + (x+4) = 63
5x = 53
x is coming out to be in decimal, which can not be

Case 2)
now the other possibility is such that month changes after some days

thus there can be few possibilities

A) x + (x+1) + (x+2) + (x+3) + 1 = 63

4x = 56 => x = 14, but 1st cant come after 17th, so it is ruled out

B) x + (x+1) + (x+2) + 1 + 2 = 63
3x = 57 => x = 19, but again 1st cant come after 21, so it is ruled out as well

C) x + (x+1) + 1 + 2 + 3 = 63
2x = 56 => x = 28, this is possible for the month with 29 days, i.e. February of leap year

so thee dates were 28,29,1,2,3

S*12 = G
S*365 = (F*365)/7 => F = 7S

August 31, 2015 by Bharath Kumar 7 Comments

Puzzle Time challenge?
Chalo solve karo…

Its a 5 digit number where…

1st digit denotes how many zeroes are there in the number

2nd digit denotes how many ones are there in the number

3rd digit denotes how many twos are there in the number

4th digit denotes how many threes are there in the number

5th digit denotes how many fours are there in the number

Can you guess the number?


Check your answer:-

Lets say there are 4 0’s, so number should be 40000, but this violates that 5th digit tells how many 4’s are there.

Now lets say there 3 0’s then number can be 30010, but thus also violates, 2nd digit tells number of 1’s

Now if there are 2 0’s then 21200 satisfies all the conditions.
