The group chat fell silent instantly.
Qiao Yu clicked on the Teddy Dog icon to view the person's name:
Li Linfeng!
He remembered that there was a manager with that name during the interview.
It seems I'll be working under him from now on.
The first question is out:
Three people went to stay at a hotel, the price was 30 yuan per night. Each person paid 10 yuan, totaling 30 yuan, and gave it to the owner. Later, the owner said there was a discount that day, only 25 yuan. The owner gave the waiter 5 yuan, asking him to return it to the three people. The waiter kept 2 yuan and only returned 1 yuan to each person. Now let's calculate: each person only paid 9 yuan, totaling 27 yuan for the three people. Adding the waiter's 2 yuan, the total is 29 yuan.
Q: Where did that last dollar go?
After a brief silence, various replies appeared in the group chat.
[Holy crap, where did the last dollar go?]
[Ask the same question. 】
Something feels off, but I can't quite put my finger on it.
Uh, why is this title so awkward?
[I, with my low IQ, am trembling with fear.]
Qiao Yu was stunned for a moment, realizing that the style of the question was very familiar.
The next moment, he remembered.
Damn, isn't this a common, overused logic puzzle from UC?
The core of this question lies in logical misdirection, which can easily lead people astray in their logic.
Out of ten people, eight thought there was nothing wrong with it.
Even if someone notices something is wrong, they can't quite put their finger on it right away.
However, after careful examination, the trap will be immediately apparent.
Qiao Yu replied:
The three people spent a total of 27 yuan. The owner received 25 yuan, and the waiter received 2 yuan. It's exactly 27 yuan. Don't be misled.
The group went silent.
It seemed as if they were scrutinizing Qiao Yu's answer.
A moment later, Li Linfeng sent a "thumbs up" emoji.
The colleagues suddenly realized:
[I knew something was wrong. 27 yuan is a purchase, and 2 yuan is income; how can the two be added together?]
Damn it, this has distorted my logic.
[Boss, can you be less manipulative and more genuine?]
Since ancient times, true feelings have been fleeting, while clever tactics have always won people's hearts.
Young people really know how to think fast, impressive. @QiaoYu
Li Linfeng tagged Qiao Yu in the group chat.
Let's have lunch together.
Thank you, manager.
Qiao Yu replied.
UC is truly a good teacher and helpful friend; I've decided not to uninstall it.
Then, Li Linfeng's second question came:
A person bought a chicken for 8 yuan, sold it for 9 yuan, then felt it wasn't a good deal, bought it back for 10 yuan, and sold it to another person for 11 yuan.
Question: How much money did he earn?
Everyone offered their answers, demonstrating impressive calculation skills.
Some say they made two dollars, others say they made one dollar.
Some people said they lost a dollar.
Everyone has their own opinion.
Qiao Yu's current mental arithmetic skills are nothing short of freakish.
The answer was known the instant I read the question.
But he felt something was wrong.
Although the question contained a few small traps, it was far too easy.
After a moment of contemplation, his eyes lit up, and he was about to type in the answer.
But they discovered that someone had beaten them to it.
[Loss of 2 yuan.]
Yang Jian replied.
Li Linfeng sent another "thumbs up" emoji.
[I'll add you to my lunch.]
When asked why this was the answer, Li Linfeng did not respond.
The third question is raised.
