style="FONT-FAMILY: 'Verdana','sans-serif'"> - Put three on each
side - if they are the same then the heavy ball is one of the remaining
balls so you compare them to find the heavy ball; if the first weighing is
uneven you take the heavy group and weigh two of them against each other - if
they are the same the third ball is the heavy one, if they are uneven you have
the heavy ball on the scales. BTW, this has been posed before, I'm sure,
and you can do this with up to nine balls. It gets more interesting when
you don't know whether the odd one out is heavier or
lighter.</SPAN><o:p></o:p></P></DIV>

a third share, the first crewman to vote yes gets half of what's left (ie a
third share), the next yes vote gets half of what's left (ie a sixth share)
etc. Now watch those hands go up! This could provoke a few fights,
though, which might reduce the pool of potential winners - depends if you need
the whole crew afterwards or can get by with a skeleton crew
(NPI).</SPAN><o:p></o:p></P></DIV>

unfaithful men in the village. All the men look sheepish because they
all know there's at least one unfaithful husband. None of the women know
for sure whether their own husbands have been unfaithful but they have to
be wondering so after nodding they all give their own husbands a very
sharp look.</SPAN><o:p></o:p></P></DIV>

1</SPAN></B> <o:p></o:p></P>
<P><SPAN style="FONT-FAMILY: 'MS Sans Serif','serif'">You have eight balls
all of the same size. Seven of them weigh the same. One of them weighs
slightly more. How can you find the heavier ball by using a balance and only
two weighings?</SPAN> <o:p></o:p></P>

2</SPAN></B> <o:p></o:p></P>
<P><SPAN style="FONT-FAMILY: 'MS Sans Serif','serif'">Youre a pirate ship
captain, and your crew gets to vote on how the gold is divided. If fewer
than half the pirates agree with you, you die. How do you recommend
apportioning the gold in such a way that you get a good share of the booty,
but still survive?</SPAN> <o:p></o:p></P>

3</SPAN></B> <o:p></o:p></P>
<P><SPAN style="FONT-FAMILY: 'MS Sans Serif','serif'">Every man in a village
of 100 married couples has cheated on his wife. Every wife in the village
instantly knows when a man other than her husband has cheated, but does not
know when her own husband has. The village has a law that does not allow for
adultery. Any wife who can prove that her husband is unfaithful must kill
him that very day. The women of the village would never disobey this law.
One day, the queen of the village visits and announces that at least one
husband has been unfaithful. What happens?</SPAN> <o:p></o:p></P>
