Beer Quiz – Subtraction

For those of you who attempted to solve the first beer quiz challenge a couple of weeks ago, here is a follow up teaser for you. You have forty five minutes and extra paper is available upon request. Please print answer neatly and don’t spill any beer.

A boy has a fridge at his home. His lady is away for three weeks. On day one he goes out and visits a particularly fine merchant who specialises in independent craft brews. He purchases 10 nice beers and takes them home. The next day he visits another outlet of the same fine beer merchant and purchases six more nice beers. On his way home he passes a different but equally fine beer merchant who also specialises in fine hand crafted beers. He purchases twelve very nice beers. The boy already had eight very nice beers in the fridge from previous visits as well as nine very nice beers in the ‘beer crisper’.

Question; If it is now day twenty and the boy’s lady is due home from overseas the following day, and the boy has been at home looking after the two pre-schoolers for three weeks, how many beers does he have left?

Is it;



(A) Plenty,
(B) Not Many,
(C) Greater than or equal to the amount of food left, or
(D) Off to the Fine Beer Merchant I go?

Answer; See Below.

Tomorrow I'll let you know what nice beers I have bought.

(B) his wife and eldest are overseas for 3 weeks, and; (C) he has been to the market and to a very nice specialty beer shop and; (D) he was unable to decide on a specific beer and; (E) because he is only cooking for 3 and not 5, and this could be represented as a formula, then;

A + (4 +2) – ( W + 13 x 21 ) x 2 / (?) + 5 – 2 = ?

For answer see below.

P.S. If you look closely you will see that there is plenty of food in the far bottom right hand little corner as well as some jam and shit on the top shelf, so it’s not like I’m neglecting the little ones. If you look closely at the middle shelf you will see that I am not neglecting me. If you look VERY closely at the middle shelf you will see that it is bending dangerously. I must go now, I have work to do.

P.P.S. If you look really, really closely you will see that the beer crisper is full as well.
