You've got someone working for you for seven days and a gold
bar to pay them. The gold bar is segmented into seven
connected pieces. You must give them a piece of gold at the
end of every day. If you are only allowed to make two breaks
in the gold bar, how do you pay your worker?
Answer Posted / manishankar
I dont have an answer for this, but i think the answer given
by Md Abdul Aziz is wrong.
The question clearly states that you have to give them a
piece of gold for every single working day, that means if
the worker is working for 2 days you have to give him 1 gold
piece for each day and not 2 gold pieces at the end of the
2nd day, like what stated in the previous answer.
Correct me if iam wrong.
