Here is the next Riddle !


If you were in an apple orchard and wanted to pick a ripe apple but it is too dark outside to tell which are ripe or not, how many would you need to pick to have 99% chance of having at least 1 ripe apple? You do not want to waste by picking too many, and know that at this time of year that 2/3 of the apples are ripe. And there is no time to find a light, as you need to hurry home with your apples.


What is the minimum number of apples to pick?

[chrisbis]

I'd pick a pear.

[reveal=Note]I hope someone else see's the Humour in this, and its not just me!! lol[/reveal]

..........and besides, u don't say how many apples are in the Apple Orchard anyway!

A bullet fired from a Kalashnikov weighs only a quarter of an ounce, but leaves the barrel at more than 1,500mph. This gives it a force of impact equivalent to that of a brick dropped from the top of St Paul's cathedral.
