1.	You have 15 rupees on you. You enter a shop and the shopkeeper informs you that each chocolate costs one rupee. He also informs you that in exchange for three wrappers, you will receive a chocolate. How many chocolates can you eat in total?
Answer» We can eat a total of 22 CHOCOLATES for Rs. 15. First, we will buy 15 chocolates for 15 rupees since each chocolate costs Re. 1. Now, we have 15 wrappers. We return all the 15 wrappers to the SHOPKEEPER which gives us 5 chocolates (15 / 3 = 5). We eat those five chocolates and return 3 wrappers to the shopkeeper and GET 1 chocolate. We eat that chocolate and again GIVE 3 wrappers which give us ONE chocolate. So, in total, we can have 15 + 5 + 1 + 1 chocolates.
