Candy Box (Posted on 2004-10-08) Difficulty: 3 of 5
A box of candies can be equally divided by weight without cutting pieces between three, four or seven people.
Each piece is an integral number of ounces.
What is the least number of pieces of candy the box could contain? The candies may be of different weights.

Candy | Comment 6 of 18 |
I have Type I Juvenile Diabetes, so I can not eat candy. I find this problem offensive and insensitive.
