A rich old Arab has three sons. When he died, he willed his
17 camels to the sons, to be divided as follows:

First Son to get 1/2 of the camels Second Son to get 1/3rd
of the camels Third Son to get 1/9th of the camels.

The sons are sitting there trying to figure out how this can
possibly be done, when a very old wise man goes riding by.
They stop him and ask him to help them solve their problem.
Without hesitation he divides the camels properly and
continues riding on his way.

How did he do it?

Answer / guest

The old man temporarily added his camel to the 17, making a
total of 18 camels.

First son got 1/2 of it = 9

Second son got 1/3 of it = 6

Third son got 1/9 of it = 2

For a total of 17. He then takes his camel back and rides
away......

Three friend gave Rs 2 tips to waiter . From remaining Rs 3 each one took one rupee. As each one contributed ten . And each friend recieved one rupee back. Means each one had breakfast in nine rupee.

In a kingdom far far away, the King decided that the time has come to find a husband for his princess daughter. The King wanted to find a worthy lad for his princess, so he promised to give his daughter away to the first young (or old) man who would solve the puzzle that has stumped the best of his court mathematicians for years. The puzzle is very simple: in a palace, there are 25 rooms arranged in a square--5 rows of rooms with 5 rooms in each row. In every room there is a light switch which not only switches on/off the light in that room, but also switches the lights in the adjacent rooms--the room to the right, to the left, the room above and the room below. Initially, all of the lights are turned off. The goal is to turn the lights on in every room of the palace.
