Motivational Monday 5/23
News
TE³AM,
Please enjoy this week’s Motivational Monday inspiration.
Personally, I like to listen to music before coming in to work in the morning so I can start my day in an upbeat and positive note. Enjoy!
BRAIN TEASERS FOR THIS WEEK:
1. Airplane Crash:
2. Thinking Outside of the Box:
ANSWERS FROM LAST WEEK:
1) Milk jug- A milkman has 2 empty jugs: a 3 gallon jug and a 5 gallon jug. How can he measure exactly 1 gallon without wasting any milk and without using any other equipment other than the 2 empty jugs?
ANSWER: The milkman filled the 3 gallon jug, and then emptied the contents into the 5 gallon jug. He then filled the 3 gallon jog again, and continued to fill the 5 gallon jug until it was full. The milk remaining in the 3 gallon jug was precisely 1 gallon.
2) Numbers: If you were to spell out numbers, how far would you have to go before you would find the letter “A”?
ANSWER: One Thousand
3) Fish: Let’s continue testing your “math ability”: You have 10 fish in your fish tank, 5 drowned, 3 came back to life. How many fish do you have?
ANSWER: Still 10! Stop counting… Fish can’t drown! 😉
Make it an outstanding week!
