If a man an a half eats a pie and a half in a minute and a half, how many men does it take to eat 60 pies in 30 minutes?

Tabby Tom

In principle, three (a man and a half gives you a pie-eating rate of one pie per {minute;} so you need three men to achieve a rate of two pies per minute). In practice, even an overweight pie-addict like myself would probably give up before he consumed 20 pies, so you might need a few reserves. Sorry about the multiple post. Oct 21 02, 7:41 PM

Lili	Actually, I think I'm wrong. 1.5 pies/1.5 men/1.5 minutes means 1 pie per man in 1.5 minutes. Therefore in 30 minutes, 1 man would eat 20 pies. So you would need 3 men to eat 60 pies in 30 minutes. Tabby Tom was right. Oct 22 02, 3:24 AM

If 1 1/2 men can eat 1 1/2 pies in 1 1/2 minutes, how many pies can 3 men eat in half an hour? A chick and a half laid an egg and a half in a day and a half. How long does it take for it to lay a dozen? Man consumes about one fiftieth of his own weight in food daily, but a mouse will eat half its weight its own weight in a day. Thus, per pound of body weight, mice eat 25 times as much food as people, and yet they don't seem to grow any bigger. So where does it all go?
