Answer Posted / shelton_anton
if the time of death is approximated in hours..........3 mice will be enough to get deducted in 16 hrs
if the time of death is approximated in minutes.......1 mice will be enough to get deducted in 10 hrs 20 minutes
if the time of death is approximated in seconds......1 mice will be enough to get deducted in 10 hrs 00 minutes 20 seconds
if the time of death is approximated in milliseconds..1 mice will be enough to get deducted in 10 hrs 00 minutes 00 seconds 20 milliseconds
if the time of death is approximated in microsecond which is not possible by medical criteria that the person will die accurately when the time 10 hrs 00 minutes 00 seconds 00 milliseconds and 20 microseconds elapses. even though if theoritically possible wil also use 1 mice to get deducted.
Else if anyone is willing to say hypothetical question could also be the answer......
