Brain Teaser – Ream Quandry – THE ANSWER

 

The Question

Missed the question? Check it out here or go straight for the answer:

The Answer

Yet again, easy when you know…if a bit tedious…. You weigh every single packet and record the results. The smallest difference between any 2 results equates to the smallest difference possible in the number of sheets, i.e. one – a single sheet. Therefore the smallest difference between two weighings equals the weight of one sheet of paper – result! Remember though, this only works if you if you have a large enough sample of packets that you can be fairly sure that you’ll have packets with consecutive number totals – and like I said, we had a HUGE number of packets. You could do extra checks by checking if your answer is a factor of all the other weighings. If it’s not then you might have to do a bit more calculating that we aren’t going to go into here as we have better things to do and, as I said, we had a HUGE number of packets. Have a great summer.

I combine professional marketing qualifications and experience with a solid understanding of real business to discuss and advise on building business relationships and market awareness, generating leads using effective marketing communication in a down-to-earth, no jargon way. As well as discussing plans and strategies I am keen to 'get my hands dirty'. I work with my clients to make sure things happen! I also have a good understanding of the technical/web aspects of marketing which clients find a real benefit. Technology is a means, NOT an end. My focus is working with business owner/managers, £500K to £10m turnover, to plan, implement and sustain effective market communication and brand awareness as a platform for targeted sales development and business growth.
