| From: frannie | Reply 2 of 2 | Reply | | | Subject: Pink Wooden Block? | When I looked at this puzzle this morning I copied it to work on. When I
looked later for the answer I could not understand it at all My answer was
186. I re read the puzzle and the whole thing was different.This is the set
of numbers I saw this morning.
A block of wood in the form of a cuboid 3" x 7" x 11" has all its six faces
painted pink. If the wooden block is cut into 231 cubes of 1" x 1" x 1", how
many of these would have pink paint on them?
What happened? I am sure I am not hallucinating this.
