Answer of Puzzle
Puzzle:
There are 2 identical bottles. Each bottle has 3 tablets in it having identical color, size, odor & other attributes.
The prescribed dose is... 2 tablets (1 tablet from each bottle).
You took 1 tablet from 1st bottle and while taking out a tablet from other bottle, 2 tablets came out.
Now you have 3 tablets on your palm. As they are identical, you are confused as to which 2 tablets to take.
Question: How will you make sure that you take the right dose?
Solution:
1. You have 3 tablets on your palm (1 from bottle 1 and 2 from bottle 2).
2. Take out 1 more tablet from bottle 1. Now you have 4 tablets (2 tablets each from bottle 1 & 2).
3. Divide each tablet in 2 halves. Now you have total 8 halves (parts).
4. Pick 1 part (half) of each of the 4 tablets. Now you have 2 halves of each of the 2 tablets.
The problem is solved. Now Keep the other 4 halves for next dose. The third dose (1 tablet each in each of the 2 bottles is remaining, that the 3rd dose.)
