Systems & Research Center, Camden, MN Subject: Give or Take Message-Id: <148@altura.srcsip.UUCP> Sender: cube-lovers-request@ai.ai.mit.edu To: cube-lovers@ai.ai.mit.edu Have I got an interesting puzzle to at least look at: GIVE or TAKE You can take 45 from 45 and have a remainder of 45. A trick, yes, but it can be done. Give it a try It's fun There is an obvious answer - You take 45 eggs from 45 chickens and you still have 45 chickens left. Can you find the other answer?
