Lol, simple math) can you solve it?

[Veyron]

after reading again it makes more sense if you replace "by" with "of" so "After the water vaporised, our heap was of 98% of water." so it started with 99% water and now its 98% water.

so work out the dry weight which would be 1% of 100kg which is 1kg. so:
so 2% = 1kg (dry weight stays the same) making 98% = 49kg of water. so the total weight would be 50KG

checking:
now 98% of 50 = 49, 49 + 1kg (dry weight) = 50Kg

Good job on figuring out, pretty simply actually just takes a little brain work.

I was confused like others by the line "After the water vaporised, our heap was by 98% of water. Can you calculate, what will be weight of the heap after vaporisation?". I would have phrased it, "After some of the water evaporated, the cucumbers are now 98% water. What is the current weight of the cucumbers?"

Good on Cool.dude123 on fingering it out.

@OldSalt I think you met "Figuring".

@OldSalt I think you met "Figuring".

@Veyron I think you meant "meant".

@Veyron I think you meant "meant".

@cool.dude123 I think you're right.

Right here is a simple question for you:

There are 32 ounces of water in a bottle. Jim drinks 6.5 ounces. Tiffany drinks 3.4 ounces and then spills 1.7 ounces on the floor. How much does their dog weigh?

The weight of their dog is incalculable as the weight of the dog wasn't specified nor stated.


Answer - 20.4 ounces of water left.

ok. one more. I found the first one on some russian BDSM forum (don`t ask what i did there, not bdsm, hehehe)

here we go, correct the error:
so we have
А + В = С

1) we can multiply both parts on (С - А):
(А + В)(С - А) = С (С - А)

2) open brackets:
АС - АА + ВС - АВ = СС - АС

3) take ВС from the left part:
АС - АА - АВ = СС - АС - ВС

4) at the left part take common multiply А, at right - С.
А (С - А - В) = С (С - А - В)

5) elliminate (С - А - В) and get:
А = С

You can't just eliminate C-A-B

why?

for eg: if 0=0
0*3=0*5

eliminating 0 will get you to 3=5

So in order to the last line of your puzzle has to be considered as an "equation" C-A-B should be=0 implies C=A+B

You cant eliminate eliminate (С - А - В), because А + В = С, hence С - А - В = 0.

eliminating 0 will get you to 3=5

c-a-b=0 so we cannot divide by zero) you found it)
but we can divide both parts with the same

 

[lexa500]

ok. one more and i go to sleep.
So, some Great King decided to buy 9 SS-20 rockets to defend his country. His military advisors told him, that the rockets work best if they are placed in rows by 3.
So the question is how to make 10 rows out of 9 rockets and each row has 3 rockets? (row=line with not less then 3 rockets )

c-a-b=0 so we cannot divide by zero) you found it)
but we can divide both parts with the same

of course when C-A-B not equal to zero

hey cool.dude you should start a maths forum.

If we have in consideration that timmy had 32.6 oranges, we can clearly say that the dog weighs around 24 pounds and obviously it is 10 years old, has two puppies and is allergic to grass. Proof me wrong if you dare

Answer - 20.4 ounces of water left.

I think you didnt see everything that HelloInsomnia implied.
Please read my response above

 

[mickyfu]

The answer is a bag and half of dried up cucumber shit.

 

[srb888]

It's damn simple, and of course I CAN solve it

BUT I don't want to...

hehehehehe

 

[srb888]

Sh!t... I made a plus/minus mistake somewhere. Do the correction and you'll have the simple answer to this, and the same steps will help you solve any other problem like this.

 

[srb888]

Do you want 1 correct answer, or 10 different correct answers to your problem? Decide that first...

Who are "their"? Which of those 2 is the dog?
