  1. Inserting a comma between "door" and "but", i.e. 5) The Chilean, who is not next door, but one to the Belgian, ..., would certainly change the meaning to one tent between the Chilean and Belgian.
  2. Found three solutions ... Maybe not correct ... Can't edit - sorry for the spolier outside the box!
  3. I think that st3v3n80 should ask his friend that gave the puzzle to him/her, to clarify. It's relatively easy to sort out names and countries, but the number of caches appears not to have enough given clues.
  4. Wat is meant by "but one to the Belgian"? A word missing? Unclear whether there is one or two tents between them.
  5. Something is wrong with one or more of the numbers in the OP!
  6. That's it! Plainglazed's answer appears to have come in slightly ahead of bonanova's, but both of them are right. X^2 =C (10^2 = 100) X^3 = M (10^3 = 1000) Was a quickie, wasn't it?
  7. A bit late now, but here's a revisit. I told you that I could have chosen a "better" stack! Here's one that actually works. It contains overhanging of bricks, but shows that shifting does not necessarily alter the perimeter. No more yellow segments, Thalia!
  8. Mathematically very well done, Ed! There is a way to "see it" ...
