a tricky question!
« on: August 30, 2008, 09:19:20 PM »
3 guys drink in a bar.... the gave P10 each ... the wine is P30..... the manager give them discount.. he make it P25 then he gave the change to the waiter .... the waiter cant divide it equally so he gave each of them P1... he kept the P2

So the guys give P9 each, 9x3=P27 + 2 in the waiter = P29

where is the P1???

May mali bro, by returning to them 1 peso of their payment does not mean they only paid 9 pesos.

8.333333333333..... ang binayad ng bawat isa, plus 'yung piso na binalik. (8.33 + 1) * 3 = 28. plus 'yung 2 = 30. grade 5 ata ako nung unang tinanong sa akin 'to.

25 / 3  = 8.33333333

8.33333333 + 1 = 9.3333333

9.3333333 x 3  = 28

28+2 = 30

the peso didnt go somewhere...



10 + 10 + 10 = 2(nasa waiter) + 25(nasa manager) + (1+1+1)
pag trinanspose mu yung tatlong 1 (meaning binalik sa guys tigpipiso)

(10 - 1) + (10-1) + (10-1) = 2(nasa waiter) + 25(nasa manger)

27=27

what made the question tricky is the 2pesos na nasa waiter...
 adding 2( the trick) would make it seemed lacking a peso
 but in the equation its very clear where the waiters 2pesos is...

i hope i made it simple...

 simple... hahaha iba na ung total na binayad kesa b4. total na binayad=total nagasto+ nasa waiter.. so 9 from each guy w/c make it 9x3=27. pero 25 lang ung dapat bayaran so the remaining 2 pesos nasa waiter. hahaha

30 piso yong ibinayad minus tatlong tig iisang 1 piso minus 2 pisong kupit ng waiter = 25 price nong liquor

30-1-1-1-2 = 25

dalawang piso ata ang nawawala sa kustomer dahil lasing na...akala e isang piso lang ang lugi nila!!!  :D :D :D

Magulo talaga pag kinupitan ang isang lashing!!!  ;D ;D ;D

study = no fail      --> eq 1
no study = fail      --> eq 2

study + no study = fail + no fail

study (no + 1) = fail (no + 1)  ------cancel (no +1) on both sides

STUDY = FAIL --------> bakit pa aral?? hehehe]



na trick ako dito nung naencounter ko... hehehe ampangit naman pag dinibdib ito ng estudyante...
