GAME....Count your cow's...

Post by MissFinn on Mon May 30, 2011 1:48 am

Anyone like counting.

"Australialainen farmari lähetti rengin kaupunkiin ostamaan eläimiä. Farmari antoi rengille $100 rahaa jolla piti ostaa 100 eläintä. Hevoset maksoi $10 kpl lampaat $3 ja kanat 50c kappale. Montako kutakin eläintä rengin piti ostaa? Kaikki eläimet piti olla edustettuina ja raha tasan."



I just need to translate this.

Aussi farmer send his son to buy farm animals.
He got 100 Dollars to do it.
He needed to buy 100 animals.

Horses cost 10 Dollars each,
lambs 3 Dollars each
chicken were 50c each.

Poor minded son was scratching his head,
can you calculate 100 farm animals,.. for 100 dollars???

OK Russ, you love this.... show your talent,
and you post the next mathematical mystery. mrgreen mrgreen

OK OK guys, go for it.....
Ps, you are allowed to use pen & paper + calculator......

Wow, I didn't realize have to post a question too.

Ok here is a simple one :

Normally, the train between Utrecht and Amersfoort drives at an average speed of 90 km/h. One day, the train was delayed a little. Because of this, the average speed of the train between Utrecht and Amersfoort was only 70 km/h, and the train arrived four minutes late in Amersfoort. What is the distance between the stations of Utrecht and Amersfoort?

Nope.
If the distance was 6 Kms, the train would be reaching only around 1m slower in the 2nd case, not 4 min slower Smile .

Ok guess I will have to solve it myself then. If we consider distance as 'X' and the time taken normally as 'Y'. Then we have the following :
X = 90 * Y for the first case
and X = 70 * ( Y + 4 ) in the 2nd case.

On solving the equations , we get X = 21 Kms and Y = 14 Min.

Freebie.
