I have know idea what method they choose. I just know your wording is insufficient.

they chose the wrong method. just like you did. The did the math incorrectly, like you.necronomous wrote: ↑Tue Jan 11, 2022 8:23 pmI have know idea what method they choose. I just know your wording is insufficient.
And that also begs the question if you knew about the flaw in logic in the question, why would you fall for the dupe and act like bitch when you know the logic is flawed? You asked for the equal distribution of rocks. I answered that. Tje fact that the money isn't distributed evenly is on you for asking me to distribute the rocks equally and could result in a double meaning.Animal wrote: ↑Tue Jan 11, 2022 8:32 pmthey chose the wrong method. just like you did.

Like I said I didn't go to solve it. Like I said, I saw hypers answer that was already correct. But thats not what it's asking for. But you "knew" that. You just "went" with it.
i've always enjoyed the entertainment of watching guys like you try to solve logic problems and then hide behind the wording when you get it wrong.necronomous wrote: ↑Tue Jan 11, 2022 10:17 pmLike I said I didn't go to solve it.

So, you're saying it didn't ask to separate the rocks evenly and then nothing else? You know the logical part of it.Animal wrote: ↑Tue Jan 11, 2022 10:30 pmi've always enjoyed the entertainment of watching guys like you try to solve logic problems and then hide behind the wording when you get it wrong.necronomous wrote: ↑Tue Jan 11, 2022 10:17 pmLike I said I didn't go to solve it.

If that were true, why in my very next statement did I say how hyper solved it. Like I had done like I said and already saw how he got his answer and said as much?Animal wrote: ↑Tue Jan 11, 2022 11:03 pm Oh, I could point out that "How much dollars did Burt and Alan get from that sum, considering they equally split the crack?"
And that would be enough for 99% of the people that solve logic problems to understand that everything in the question should be considered an equitable split. Which is what you thought you were doing when you came up with your incorrect answer. But, you will argue now that it didn't specifically state in words that "the money each man paid should end up being equal". And that's your defense to cover up your mistake. It takes a special kind of moron to try this tactic to cover up his mistake, but then, here you are.
because you were desperate to cover up the embarrassment of your mistake. You also asked if i had seen his answer, which clearly i had since i responded to him before you ever posted. But you never saw my reply congratulating him either, since that would have stopped you from posting your mistake.necronomous wrote: ↑Tue Jan 11, 2022 11:32 pmIf that were true, why in my very next statement did I say how hyper solved it.

I had actually saw both. That's how I knew his was right. And I was wondering what the hell is 122.5 and 17.5 all about. And then I saw you whining about how no one answers your questions, so I gave it a read. Then I figured out hyper did it. And thought cool. Then I thought that's not what it asked for. Yadda yadda yadda, but ok simpy.Animal wrote: ↑Tue Jan 11, 2022 11:48 pmbecause you were desperate to cover up the embarrassment of your mistake.

no, you never saw his post or mine, and just put that big old mistake of yours out there for all to see. Mr Crawfish.
The wording was imprecise.
Here's why your coverup is flawed, too.necronomous wrote: ↑Tue Jan 11, 2022 4:51 pmIt is if my first statement is true. If you assume Burt gave 35 of his to reach 40 and Alan gave 5 then its 122.50, and 17.50. But you didn't clarify how they divided the rocks.

Burt and Alan get from that sum, considering they equally split the crack?
Each get 25 rocks from burt and 15 from Alan.
140/40= 3.50 each rock.
3.50x25= 87.50 for Burt
3.50x15= 52.50 for Alan
You think that's what that was? Ok. It wasn't, but it doesn't matter what I say, you just want to show how dumb I am. Whatever gets your rocks off man. I told you what happened. I'm telling you man, you need help.Animal wrote: ↑Wed Jan 12, 2022 12:54 amHere's why your coverup is flawed, too.necronomous wrote: ↑Tue Jan 11, 2022 4:51 pmIt is if my first statement is true.

In your original posting, before you realized you fucked up, you said "assuming the split is also even for the rocks for each of them; then:......"
Read that wording. Assuming the split "is also" even for the rocks for each of them. So you are assuming two things are even, which is why you used the word "also". There are only two things that could mean. Money and Crack. So you know going in that the money each spent had to be equal along with the amount of crack they ended up with. Which is exactly what the problem was asking, as anyone would know.
And then you proceeded to try to do that, in the wrong way. And got the wrong answer.
Good luck selling that argument to the crackheads!necronomous wrote: ↑Tue Jan 11, 2022 5:39 pmIt is though. If you throw all the rocks in a pile you divy them up 15 each from Alan and 25 from burt. It's like burt and Alan traded theirs that they already paid for. So burt got paid for the 25 he paid for and Alan got the paid for the 15 he paid for. But even still you didn't say equitable split of money. You said if they equally split the crack. In my example they equally split the crack. So I satisfied your termsAnimal wrote: ↑Tue Jan 11, 2022 5:12 pmThe difference is that yours is not an equitable split of the money. Which is what makes yours wrong.
