    Thumbs up Re: A riddle

    Answer :
    Question to be asked :
    "If I asked the _other_ twin, which path would he indicate
    leads to New Helsinki?" Take the path _opposite_ to what's indicated!
    Regardless of whom you ask, they'll point to the wrong path.
    =================================================
    If asking truth teller---
    Truth teller will realize what the liar will say, and tell you the response of the liar which will be a wrong path.
    --hence you do the opposite
    If asking liar---
    The liar will know the truth teller will give you the correct path, and tell you opposite that which is the wrong path, thus lying
    --hence again, you do the opposite and path not directed to

    Question Re: A riddle

    One from my side !
    err two actually
    First is a funny one n the other is a mathematical puzzle.
    ==================================================
    (1) There r 3 ducks floating in a lake in a row.[lake with dirty water where they r not able to see their reflection in the water]. the one in the middle says "in front of me are 3 ducks, behind me r 3 ducks, to the left of me r three, n to the right of me r 3 ducks !" how's that possible ? remember they don't see their reflection n can't count them. also they do not change their positions.
    Try if u can. I guess u can't !
    ==================================================
    (2) At a Ration shop, the owner uses just 4 weights to weigh all weights of cereals, upto 80 KGs. i.e he can weigh all weights [1,2,3,4.......79,80.] with those 4 weights only. How much those 4 weights weigh individually?

    note : they weigh exactly. i.e 1 or 2 or 3 or.. & not 1.5 , 2.75 etc.
