Solution:

This question is one of the most common interview question. The most common answer of the question is sixty which is completely wrong. The second most common answer of this interview question is 10 which is wrong as well.

What we have is
6 fishermen catches 6 fishes in 6 minutes

If you offer them 10 times as much as time, they will surely catch 10 times as much as fishes as well
Thus the same six fishermen will be able to catch 60 fishes in 60 minutes.

You can also thing this in the unitary method.

If six fishermen catches 6 fishes in 6 minutes
Then, one fisherman will catch one 1 fish in 6 minutes
Thus in sixty minutes, one fisherman will catch 10 fishes (10 times the time, ten times the fishes).

Thus the right answer is six.

Solution:

The answer is 2. First, divide the coins into 3 equal piles. Place a pile on each side of the scale, leaving the remaining pile of 3 coins off the scale. If the scale does not tip, you know that the 6 coins on the scale are legitimate, and the counterfeit is in the pile in front of you. If the scale does tip, you know the counterfeit is in the pile on the side of the scale that raised up. Either way, put the 6 legitimate coins aside. Having only 3 coins left, put a coin on each side of the scale, leaving the third in front of you. The same process of elimination will find the counterfeit coin.

Solution:

17 mins

The initial solution most people will think of is to use the fastest person as an usher to guide everyone across. How long would that take? 10 + 1 + 7 + 1 + 2 = 21 mins. Is that it? No. That would make this question too simple even as a warm up question.

Let’s brainstorm a little further. To reduce the amount of time, we should find a way for 10 and 7 to go together. If they cross together, then we need one of them to come back to get the others. That would not be ideal. How do we get around that? Maybe we can have 1 waiting on the other side to bring the torch back. Ahaa, we are getting closer. The fastest way to get 1 across and be back is to use 2 to usher 1 across. So let’s put all this together.

1 and 2 go cross
2 comes back
7 and 10 go across
1 comes back
1 and 2 go across (done)

Total time = 2 + 2 + 10 + 1 + 2 = 17 mins
