Post by aceserve on Jan 31st, 2005, 8:15pm

>You are participating in a race. You overtake the second person. What position are you in?
>
>
>
>Answer: If you answered that you are first, then you are
>absolutely wrong! If you overtake the second person and you take his place, you are second!
>
>Try not to screw up in the next question.
>To answer the second question, don't take as much time as you took for
the first question.

>Second Question:
>If you overtake the last person, then you are...?
>
>
>
>Answer: If you answered that you are second to last, then you are
wrong again. Tell me, how can you overtake the LAST Person?
>

your day. Maybe you will get the last question right?

What do you know; I have always thought myself as non-mathematical and not very logical person. Still, I did well with 4 simple questions. Life is full of surprises! :)
