Hmmm... not much of a response on this thread. I think everyone got pissed off because after taking the quiz they didn't even get one correct answer

It concerns me somewhat, seeing that it is such an easy quiz.

Vo2...Now I have one for you....
3 men (or women) sit in a coffee shop. Each one has a cup of coffee. They all put an odd number of sugars in their coffee that when you add them all up it amounts to 12. Now the question is, how many sugars does each person put in their cup. (Remember, they each put in an odd number of sugars).

Hmmm...one could get all mathematical and divide the sugars into ¼'s and ¾'s, but most of these brain teasers don't work like that, so lets keep it simple.
Put 1 sugar into each of 2 cups, and then 10 sugars into the reamaining cup. It certainly would be ODD to put that many sugars into one cup of coffee. ![]()
