Seltzer Wada Solutions A and B
Ize am nutt zur aboot mye solooshun butz Ize wiyill shoo TcT wat Ize tink zo far. Foah awl doz ztill wuking awn dais, pleaze DON'T luk. If u tink u hav nailed id, be mye guest.
Max's solution #1
I think maybe I will try to design a Queezin-air rod strukcha to vairify dais theeree at 9:00 pm 2 night. Sowee. Got to get reddee 4 wuk nuhow.
For Max's "i's" (woops, wrong blog) eyes only.
If you were allowed to 1/2 fill a glass (which you're not) you would be allowed to 4/5 fill a glass, so you'd obviously pick the 5 pint glass and you'd be done.
Inudderwuds, solly cholly, no ceegar today.
okeedokee. Awn 2 anudda ideeah. Tanx.
TcT, you nailed this one, both of your solutions are correct. Sorree Max, yours is not, try again.
I have a feeling my remark about Queezin-air rods might have led Max in particular down some wrong path; I really only used them to prop up little pieces of colored blue strips of paper of various heights. You'll see what I'm talking about when you visit my link (which of course you aren't spozed to do till ...)
Anyway, the key to most problems is to somehow get your mind aimed at some crucial idea. In this case, the idea is to realize you need to fill one of the containers and then dump it in the other and / or to empty a container into the sink.
All yours.
I hope others will not mind if I am a little slow on solving this problem. I think I get at least part of the idea now. I know you'de probably like to make your solution(s) more "available." Give me 24 more hours and I will be sure to get back to you, ok? By this time tomorrow I will have tried my best to nail this at the bar (sober!)
and let you know. Thanks.
Let's try to remember that this is for fun, no pressure involved!
Sounds good.
Ize hav bin communicating wid Reighn aboot dais poozle and zhe zeems tah tink zhe haz da anzer foah ow tah satisfy dais customer wid limited glassware awn hayend.
