- 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>

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>

<o:p></o:p></p>
<p><span style='font-family:"MS Sans Serif","serif"'>This is usually for the
Off topic List but I just checked and many are not registered on that list ....</span>
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p><span style='font-family:"MS Sans Serif","serif"'>So here goes ... here are
some questions from a well known company ... but don't cheat and search online
...try and think them through.</span> <o:p></o:p></p>
<p><b><span style='font-family:"MS Sans Serif","serif"'>Question 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>
<p><b><span style='font-family:"MS Sans Serif","serif"'>Question 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>
<p><b><span style='font-family:"MS Sans Serif","serif"'>Question 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>

long one for the Auckland bods.</span> <o:p></o:p></p>
