Regarding Yesterday's questions:
"a+b+c>9 and b+c>6 then least possible value of a for any value of b and c is"

Its clearly mentioned in the question that we need to find least value of a "for any value of b+c" and not "least sum of b and c".

b+c = 9, and a =1 satisfies following two conditions:
a+b+c>9
b+c>6

Which means a =1 is the least value of a and that should be the answer.

Please clarify

Yesterday qn was

A man paid a certain amount to buy 24 dozens banana. If the rate of banana would be 4 rupee more for each dozen, then he bought as many dozens as was the previous rate. Total investment of the man was .......

In this case accepted answer is Rs 20 which is absolutely wrong. As per statement, total investment of man is required and not the initial rate.
i knew that such confusion will come again, I did not try for the qn.

I have full sympathy with friends who gave correct answer as per qn but suffered loss of points as usual.

Hi Admin,

I have a suggestion related with Daily Puzzle scoring. Currently on changing the score and answering the right answer on 2nd attempt user is alloted with 14 marks irrespective of the time taken by him or her to answer. I believe this is not correct. If a user changes his option within 11:10 he should be alloted marks based on timing of final correct attempt - 1 marks for changing his options.

Such cases are possible in m4maths only.
For yesterday puzzle of integral sides of triangle,
I was also getting answer as 1 .. Option 9 but I did not give the reply due to earlier experience.

I have sympathy with friends who have given correct answer but are being penalised .

For puzzle dtd 19/7/11

Two sides of a triangle are 2 and 1. How many integral possibilities are there for the third side.

Only 1 integral solution is possible with sides 1,2,2.
Given logic is
since sum of two sides should be greater than the third side so third side will be either 1 or 2
so two possibilities are there.

In this case, Ist part is correct but applying that logic to sides 1,1,2.... no triangle with sides 1,1,2 is possible.

If u hypothetically consider it as triangle with base 2 and sides 1 and 1 with zero height, then triangle with sides 1,2,3 is also possible.

For a normal maths student, only one solution is possible with sides 1,2,2.

Pls check.

answer given on 30/6/2011 is wrong....
because the question says that marks between ram and shaym... that means answer should be 98/97 = 1.013. so option 10 is the correct answer...

please check the question again....
