Some simple math/logic puzzles

I've been doing a couple math puzzles here and there and thought I'd add a story to these puzzles because...why not? Everything is more fun with a story!

These are some simple logic puzzles encountered by a pirate when he visits a strange and exotic island...

So far I've posted puzzle number 1! You can read it on the 'Pirate Adventures with Math' page that links to this blog.

  1. Very cool! I like your story. The box applet makes it a lot easier to think through.

  2. Thanks! :) I like the applet, too. It's easy to see the right answer instead of just reading it.
