what is the minimum number of tries to find the poisoned
one. Rat dies once it licks the poisoned wine.
Answer Posted / vahid
Answer: 10
Reason:
The best case happens ONLY when each rat dies just as they
taste the FIRST bottle given to them (you can imagine it a
miracle :D )
In this case, the very first 10 attempts reveal the
poisonous bottles. So the answer is 10.
