Barrel (Posted on 2003-01-12) Difficulty: 1 of 5
Tim and Adam made a bet.Tim bet Adam that he could put something into his barrel to make it lighter. They first weighed the barrel. Then Adam left the room while Tim pondered a solution.One hour later, Adam returned, and they weighed the barrel once again. The barrel was indeed lighter. What did Tim put in the barrel?
