In a pizza parlor, you have to pay a certain amount to add extra toppings. Now the price for toppings are given in a pair below. Can you find out what each topping costs?
Corn & Jalapeno $7
Mushrooms & Extra Cheese $6
Paprika & Tomatoes $2
Onion & Jalapeno $5
Green chilly & Paprika $4
Tomatoes & Onion $3
Extra Cheese & Paprika $5
Please note that the toppings are priced w.r.t. whole dollar increments (no fraction prices).
We know that each topping is round priced to whole-dollar increments.
Now if you see the price of Paprika and Tomatoes i.e. $2, you know that they both must be priced $1 since we cant go into fractions.
Now, you need to apply simple mathematics to find out the price of the remaining ones. For example
Extra Cheese + Paprika = $5
Extra Cheese + $1 = $5
Extra Cheese = $4
Using this way, you will find our the prices are as follows:
Tomatoes $1
Paprika $1
Green chilly $3
Onion $2
Extra Cheese $4
Mushrooms $2
Jalapeno $3
Corn $4

#26 - Count Legs Puzzle
A calamity took a toll on 100 people who were brought to the same hospital. Out of the 100 patients, a few had lost their one leg. From the rest of the patients, half lost both their legs.
Can you calculate how many legs in total do the patients have now?
This is a simple problem that can be solved using average.
The average number of legs per patient who lost one leg is 1.
In the remaining patients, half people dont have a single leg and half have 2 legs. Therefore, the average leg per patient is 1 in this case as well.
Therefore, in total, the average number of legs per patient is 1.
Since there are 100 patients, the number of legs = 100.
