In 1000 wine bottles stack 10 are poisoned given 10 rats
what is the minimum number of tries to find the poisoned
one. Rat dies once it licks the poisoned wine.
Answer Posted / vahid
Answer: 10
Reason:
The best case happens ONLY when each rat dies just as they
taste the FIRST bottle given to them (you can imagine it a
miracle :D )
In this case, the very first 10 attempts reveal the
poisonous bottles. So the answer is 10.
