A salesman decided to hold a contest to guess the # of silver dollars in a jar in his store window. Jill guessed 61, Bill guessed 59, Jimmy guessed 60, Seth guessed 58 and Robert guessed 62. Only one was correct. Two were wrong by 2. Two were off by 1.

How many silver dollars were there?

Re: How Smart Are You?

60 is the obvious answer, unless there is some trick. It seems too easy.

Re: How Smart Are You?

The sequence is out of order, obfuscating it, but the guesses are 58-62 consecutive. 5 guesses, so the 2 outer ones are off by 2 and the 2 inner ones off by 1, the one in the middle correct.

They were all correct. Each one nicked a dollar while the salesman was writing the guess on the whiteboard.
