Answer / guest

32 eggs

Let's apply all 3 condition separately and put all possible
numbers together.

First condition says that if multiple of 5, then the number
is between 1 and 19. Hence, the possible numbers are (5, 10,
15, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30, 31, 32, 33, 34,
35, 36, 37, 38, 39)

Second condition says that if not a multiple of 8, then the
number is between 20 and 29. Hence, the possible numbers are
(8, 16, 20, 21, 22, 23, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 32)

Third condition says that if not a multiple of 10, then the
number is between 30 and 39. Hence, the possible numbers are
(10, 20, 31, 32, 33, 34, 35, 36, 37, 38, 39)

Only number 32 is there in all 3 result sets. That means
that only number 32 satisfies all three conditions. Hence,
Veeru have 32 eggs in his bucket.

On the shelf you have 10 identical bottles of identical pills (let?s say there?s a hundred pills in each bottle). However, one of those 10 bottles contains cheap knockoff pills. The only way to differentiate fake pills from real pills is the weight - while real pills weigh 1 g each, the knockoff pills are only 0.9 g. You have one scale that shows the exact weight (down to the mg) of whatever is weighed. How can you tell which bottle contains fake pills with just 1 weighing?
