NEW CHALLENGE

This challenge is now closed out.  I am happy to say that several people correcctly responded that the amounts are equal.  Interestingly, I asked the same question last year, only with salt and pepper (i.e., solids rather than liquids) and no one answered correctly.  Congratulations to Cadet Migliori who was the first to answer.

Here's a new cadet challenge. 

You have 10 ounces of water in one glass (A), and 10 ounces of wine in another glass (B). You take one ounce of water from water glass A and put it into wine glass B, stir it, and then take one ounce of the water-wine mixture from B and put it into water glass A. You again have 10 ounces in each glass.


Is the amount of wine in glass A greater than, less than, or equal to, the amount of water in glass B?

The one on the right is water. Trust me, they are both 10 ounces.



This challenge will close out at 0730, Monday, 1 October.  Good luck!
