The Cucumber

Puzzle:

On a sunny morning, a greengrocer places 200 kilograms of cucumbers in cases in front of his shop. At that moment, the cucumbers are 99% water. In the afternoon, it turns out that it is the hottest day of the year, and as a result, the cucumbers dry out a little bit. At the end of the day, the greengrocer has not sold a single cucumber, and the cucumbers are only 98% water. How many kilograms of cucumbers has the greengrocer left at the end of the day?

Solution:

The greengrocer has 100 kilograms of cucumbers left at the end of the day.

In the morning, the 200 kilograms of cucumbers are 99% water. So the non-water part of the cucumbers has a mass of 2 kilograms. At the end of the day, the cucumbers are 98% water. The remaining 2% is still the 2 kilograms of non-water material (which does not change when the water evaporates). If 2% equals 2 kilograms, then 100% equals 100 kilograms. So, the greengrocer has 100 kilograms of cucumbers left at the end of the day.

100 Kg

Initially out of 200Kg
water 99% = 198Kg
solid mass 1% = 2Kg

Now some water dries out but the solid mass remains constant and it constitutes 2% of the entire weight(given 98% water remaining)
Let the total weight be x

now 2/x * 100 = 2%
=> x = 100Kg

Generic Viagra (sildenafil citrate; brand names include: Aphrodil / Edegra / Erasmo / Penegra / Revatio / Supra / Zwagra) is an effective treatment for erectile dysfunction regardless of the cause or duration of the problem or the age of the patient.
Sildenafil Citrate is the active ingredient used to treat erectile dysfunction (impotence) in men. It can help men who have erectile dysfunction get and sustain an erection when they are sexually excited.
Generic Viagra is manufactured in accordance with World Health Organization standards and guidelines (WHO-GMP). Also [url=twitter.com/iuyjopg]Viagra Sales Market[/url] you can find on our sites.
Generic [url=http://fovunec.freehostia.com]Ordering Viagra to Canada[/url] is made with thorough reverse engineering for the sildenafil citrate molecule - a totally different process of making sildenafil and its reaction. That is why it takes effect in 15 minutes compared to other drugs which take 30-40 minutes to take effect.

Even in the most sexually liberated and self-satisfied of nations, many people still yearn to burn more, to feel ready for bedding no matter what the clock says and to desire their partner of 23 years as much as they did when their love was brand new.
The market is saturated with books on how to revive a flagging libido or spice up monotonous sex, and sex therapists say “lack of desire” is one of the most common complaints they hear from patients, particularly women.

For many years, it was assumed that manual male enhancement exercises to increase the size of the penis were a mere myth. Even men’s magazines would state that manual exercises do not work.

Sex plays an important role in our lives. It keeps us healthy and happy. Whether you have a long-term partner or you’re enjoying casual sexual activity, it will be a source of self-confidence and happiness.

If you can’t have sex, however, chances are that your mood will be quite different. Men suffering from erectile dysfunction (ED) will quite often experience anxiety and even depression due to their inability to perform.

Horny goat weed is a scientifically-recognized testosterone booster. The plant acts in an all natural way, stimulating the pituitary gland to produce larger quantities of the hormone.

The pituitary is also the gland responsible for the production of growth hormone. Thus, a link can be established between the use of epimedium supplements and an increase in the growth hormone levels. fine hypergh14x review site

Cucumbers contain water = 99%of 200 kg
Solid part of cucumber = 2kg ( 200-198)
The time from morning to evening , again water evaporate = 1% of 198 = 19.8
So, cucumber left at the end of the day = (198-19.8+2)kg = 181.2kg
