Guest guest Posted October 21, 2003 Report Share Posted October 21, 2003 The Cucumber Case On a sunny morning, a greengrocer places 200 kilograms of cucumbers in cases in front of his shop. At that moment, the cucumbers are 99% water. In the afternoon, it turns out that it is the hottest day of the year, and as a result, the cucumbers dry out somewhat. At the end of the day, the greengrocer has not sold a single cucumber, and the cucumbers are only 98% water. The Question: How many kilograms of cucumbers has the greengrocer left at the end of the day? Answer: tomorrow. Kishore Shah 1974 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
