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 / geoffrey
Or you could just ask the worker to break it. the question
states that YOU can't break it more than twice, it doesn't
say that it can't be broken more than twice.
