When they started off on the great annual picnic every wagon in town was pressed into service, each one carrying the same number of people.
Half way to the picnic ground ten wagons broke down, so it was necessary for each of the remaining wagons to carry one more person.
When they started for home it was discovered that fifteen more wagons were out of commission, so on the return trip there were three persons more in each wagon than when they started out in the morning.
How many people attended the great annual picnic?

While enjoying a giddy ride at the carousel Sammy propounded a puzzle which reflects much credit to his mental abilities.
“One third of the number of kids riding ahead of me, added to three-quarter of those riding behind me gives the correct number of children on this Merry-Go-Round” is the way he puts it; but it will puzzle you quite a little to tell just how many riders there were at this whirling circus.View SolutionSubmit Solution- 1,072.6K views
