A driver of a car wants to cover a total distance of 1000 KM. Apart from the 4 tires of the car, he has also in his disposal a spare tire. If he wants to use equally all the tires of the car, how much distance each tire should cover?
Answer: 800 KM
Solution:
Let Tire numbers be 1,2,3,4,5
1) Use Tire 1234 for 0-200 km
2) Use Tire 1235 for 2000-400 km
3) Use Tire 1254 for 4000-600 km
4) Use Tire 1534 for 6000-800 km
5) Use Tire 5234 for 8000-1,000 km
As you may have noticed, each Tire is used 4 times so total of 200×4 = 800 KM
As we can see each Tire gets to run 800 km
Correct answer: 800 KM

Carl is trying to find solutions to a geometric puzzle. He has a square plot of land that he needs to reserve 1/4 for himself and divide the remaining 3/4 equally and in similar shape, among his 4 children. There are two possible solutions. Can you solve the puzzle?
Answer: Solution #1 - Squares First, Carl divides his as to reserve to himself one-fourth in the form of a square. Then, Carl takes the remaining 3/4 shape and scales it down by 1/4. He then, multiplies the shape into 4 identically shaped pieces, and aranges them so that they fit into the original 3/4 shape. Solution #2 - Rectangles First, create a triangle that is 1/4 the size of the square. Now, with straight lines, create two squares. Proceed to disect the two squares with horizontal lines creating 4 triangles. Then, disect one of the resultuing triangles from each square. The shape of land for each of his four children is divided evenly and is the same shape.
