Because an engineer has to be very good at solving problems, i thought i would add a few riddles that will test your ability to think, I will post the answers next week, feel free to comment what you think the answer is in the mean time.
Q: An old man wanted to leave his fortune to one of his three sons, but could not decide who, so he gave each of his sons just a few coins and told them to buy something that would fill the living room. The first man bought straw with the coins, but it did not fill the entire room. The second son bought firewood with the coins but it also did not fill the room. The third son however, was able to buy something that filled the entire room with ease, and he was given his father's inheritance. What was it that the third son bought with just a few coins that filled the entire room?
I guess that he paid his brothers to walk in the room, therefore filling it up. Remember it's just a guess.
