    Thank you dear...anyhow...I tried with my own strategy....and I collected 53...
  2. wolfgang

    12 Holes arrenged in a circle ,with numbers,1-12(like a Clock numbers). The hole No. 12 is yours, and is empty. There are Jewels in each hole equal to the number of the hole, i.e. in hole No. 1 is only one jewel, in No. 2 are 2jewels....and so on,till No. 11 which contains 11 jewels. your aim is to collect as much jewels as you can in your hole. 1-choose any hole you wish,take the jewels from that hole then move clockwise among the holes puting one jewel in each hole you pass through, your hole must be also included. 2-when you reach with your last jewel to a hole having jewels,take them all( with your last jewel) and continue as in step 1. 3- if the last jewel in your hand ended in an empty hole...you lose the game!. 4-if you have enough jewels you should put a jewel in an empty hole when passing through it. 5-if you reach with your last jewel to your hole ( No. 12 ), repeat step 1. Now enjoy collecting the jewels in your hole,and avoid falling in an empty hole. And we`ll see who has the best strategy... Have a nice time

    The sentence x = y (mod n) means that n is a divisor of x - y. This sentence is read, "x is congruent to y modulo n." It is something like a remainder, because if you subtract a remainder from the dividend, the divisor will go into the result evenly. try again

    According to my fantasy.. Ali baba wanted to kill only the gang boss hiding in one of the forty Jars. the jars were in a row ( 1 to 40 ),and each 8 jars have the same color. the blue jars were in the middle. the white were right to the red. the yellow were left to the black. the last jar was not black As the Boss hates the black color , he left 10 jars in between. In which Jar was the Boss? which No., and which color?

    I can prove 1 = 2 !! or 0= 1,, or 3 = 7 and so on....i. e. x = y( where x and y are normally not equall ). mathmatically and without breaking any mathmatical roles ! can you ?

    In the original version,,the last one can see all the other 19....but here...no one can see but the one in front of him and let me suppose that each prisoner has two buttons(white and black)and when he press one of them a recorder will say that color.
  18. wolfgang

    and what if the answer is recorded....and he has only to press one button(white or black)??
