It would take 6 minutes for 4 monkeys to eat 4 bananas; and  2. it would take 6 monkeys 42 minutes to eat 42 bananas.  Food for thought:  What assumptions are made in arriving at the solution?  Does one assume that 6 monkeys take 1 minute to eat 1 banana and that all bananas are consumed at the same pace? Or does one assume that 1 monkey takes 6 minutes to eat 1 banana and that all monkeys eat at the same pace?  Think it over!  ----- Original Message ----- From: Shubhangi Bhendigire To: chatmasti@googlegroups.com Sent: Friday, February 25, 2011 11:42 AM Subject: Re: [ChatMasti] Brain teaser#3 Hi,  First Answer is 4 Minutes. and Second Answer is 30 Monkey.
