Default Bit of a stupid one here......
Had a debate at work today,,,,,,right here goes,

If you had 10 bottles of Smirnoff Ice 5% alc (275ml bottles)
or
10 bottles of Bulmers 4.5% alc (568ml bottles)
Which would get you most drunk? A couple of lads say that because the Smirnoff Ice is 5% you are consuming more alcohol,so that means you've got more chance of being drunk. I'm sure someone on here can clear it up for me..

The bulmers are more than twice as big so it's going to be them

A bottle of Vodka

The Bulmers is a better choice, as although it has marginally less volume of alcohol, you would be drinking alot more in thr 10 bottles, so should sort you out.

Did they leave school at 8 years old?

5% of 275ml = 13.75ml alcohol per bottle
4.5% of 568ml = 25.56ml alcohol per bottle

You have 2 warehouses of infinte size and each is completely filled with boxes. In Warehouse A, each box is 1m x 1m x1m. In Warehouse B, each box is 2m x 2m x 2m. Which Warehouse holds the most boxes?

Do I detect a contradiction in the wording used here. If I had an infinite sized warehouse I would never be able to fill it as it is infinite.

Having said that both warehouses would hold the same amount of boxes, ie an infinite amount.

I think
