Lightbulb I Bet You dont know The answer to this

IP: 28AD 5545

A school has 200 students. However, these are special students: some of them ALWAYS tell the truth, and the rest of them, alas, NEVER tell the truth. Among the subject areas of math, science, and social studies, each student has one favorite. A survey was conducted where each student was asked three yes or no questions: "Do you like math the most?" "Do you like science the most?" "Do you like social studies the most?"

The results were as follows:


104 students said "yes," they liked math the most.
86 students said "yes," they liked science the most.
60 students said "yes," they liked social studies the most.

How many students tell the truth, and how many do not?


Good luck

ummm is it... 150 tell the truth... and 50 dont...
Students tellin tha truth will answer yes to one subject, but not telling the truth will answer yes to two subjects, but not to their real favorite
cause there 250 answers 104 + 86 + 60, there are 50 more yes answers, from 50 students who didnt tell tha truth...
that right?

150 students tell the truth, while 50 students do not.
Students who tell the truth will answer "yes" to one favorite subject, whereas those not telling the truth will answer "yes" to two subjects (but not to their real favorite). Since there are 250 answers (104 + 86 + 60), there are 50 extra "yes" answers, from the 50 students who do not tell the truth.

You are given 5 bags. There are 10 beads in each of the bags. In four of the bags, the beads each weigh 10 kilograms. In the remaining bag, each bead weighs only 9 kilograms. All the bags and beads look identical. You must find out which bag has the lighter beads. The problem is that all the bags look identical and all the beads look identical. You can use a scale, but it has to be a single-tray scale, not a two-tray balance scale. Also, you may use the scale only once. How can you find out which bag has the lighter beads

Answer That

Label the bags from 1 to 5
Take 1 bead out of Bag 1, and label it 1.
Take 2 beads out of Bag 2 and label them both with a 2.
Take 3 beads out of Bag 3, and label each with a 3. do this the pattern with Bags 4 and 5. Put these 15 beads on the tray of the scale...

If all 15 weighed 10 kilograms, it would be 150 kg. But since some of the beads weighs only 9 kilograms, it would be less than 150 kg. Subtract the number on the scale from 150. if the scale is 148, it’s bag 2. If the scale is 145, it’s bag 5.

Label the bags from 1 to 5. Take 1 bead out of Bag 1, and label it 1. Take 2 beads out of Bag 2, and label them both with a 2. Take 3 beads out of Bag 3, and label each with a 3. Continue this pattern with Bags 4 and 5. Put these 15 beads on the tray of the scale.
If all 15 weighed 10 kilograms, the scale would register 150 kilograms. But since one or more of the beads weighs only 9 kilograms, the scale will register less than 150. Subtract the number on the scale from 150. Your answer will tell you the number of the bag with the lighter beads. (If the scale registers 148, it’s bag #2. If the scale registers 145, it’s bag #5.)

Correct Again
