You've got someone working for you for seven days and a gold
bar to pay them. The gold bar is segmented into seven
connected pieces. You must give them a piece of gold at the
end of every day. If you are only allowed to make two breaks
in the gold bar, how do you pay your worker?
Answer Posted / sanket
another way of doing this would be, say the 7 bars are
numbered from 1 to 7. You need to break 2nd and 7th piece.
This way you will three single pieces (1st, 2nd and 7th)
and one 4 bar piece (3rd,4th,5th and 6th).
Give a single piece on first three days. On fourth give the
4 bar piece and take 3 singles back. Again pay with singles
for 3 days :)
