This is exactly why I find these kinds of puzzles infuriating. It always hinges on some contrived, bullshit "trick" which has nothing to do with solving real problems.
- Nursie 12y agoIt's really not a trick. You simply take all the knowledge you are given and (this is important) don't make any additional assumptions or guesses or even really think of the participants as human, and.solve it like a math problem.
- TillE 12y agoYeah. I'm completely unable to do any of the stereotypical interview question puzzles which hinge on an "outside the box" trick, but I had no trouble recognizing this as a straightforward problem that you just work through.
