Question 10
by TECHNOTHLON Thu Jul 21, 2016 11:24 am
Question 10 :
When they are walking, one of the men, Sharktooth, in the troop is planning something against Tintin, and walks up to him saying that he does not believe Tintin is smart enough to lead them, so he throws up a challenge for him. He places 2 boxes, one having 15 apples and the other having 12 apples, he tells Tintin that either he can eat equal number of apples from both boxes or any number of apples from any of the boxes. He says that whoever eats the last apple will be their leader, and tells Tintin to make his choice first. How many apples will Tintin eat in his first move to win?

There are several possible answers to this question, and since the question never specified if we need to find the minimum. It's absolutely fair, if all the possible alternatives are taken up.
