Re: Let's see who's the smartest
Good one! I like it.
The fast assumption is that none of the pipes are blocked.
3 doesn't have any way to empty into 4 or 5.
None others will ever fill up.

Re: Let's see who's the smartest
Exactly, allow me to explain...4 and 5 have they're spouts blocked as well as the entrance to 6, and 7 has a friggin hole in the bottom which means 2 and 1 would never reach the top

Re: Let's see who's the smartest
Answer is #4 cup, the cups on the right side will never get fill. Just remember water flows to lowest point.
Scratch out what I wrote, didn't see the clever little drawing that has sprout blocked or I thought that was just drawing error.

Re: Let's see who's the smartest
It all depends on the rate of flow. If the faucet was flowing more rapidly than the openings in the cup could drain cup number one would fill first. Otherwise it would be #3.

Re: Let's see who's the smartest
I was thinking of that too at first, but it shows the spigot is dripping, so I went with 3. I think whoever designed this challenge made it a test of observation and specifically showing the drip was part of it.MikeRichards wrote: ↑Sun Oct 29, 2017 3:36 pmIt all depends on the rate of flow.

I want to print this out and put it in the break room and see how the shop guys do with it.
