A octopus has 8 legs. A hippogriff has 6 legs and 2 pairs of wings. A sphinx has 6 legs and one pair of wings. Now we have all 3 kinds and a total of 18 insects in a cage. We have a total of 118 legs and 20 pairs of wings. How many insects do we have of each kind ?
There are 5 octopus, 7 hippogriff & 6 sphinx.
Let 'A' be the number of octopus, 'B' be number of hippogriff and 'C' be number of sphinx.
A+B+C = 18
8A+6B+6C = 118
2B+C = 20
Solving this, A=5, B=7, C=6

There are 2 sand hourglasses.
The small one can measure 5 hours and the large one can measure 7 hours.
How can we measure 16 hours with 2 sand hourglasses running together ?
Steps:
* Start both sand hourglasses at the same time.
* You flip over the small sand hourglass when it finishes the first 5 hours.
* Flip over the large one when it finishes its first 7 hours.
* When the small sand hourglass runs to 10 hours, flip over the small and large sand hourglass at the same time. It means the large sand hourglass will run 3 hours again. When the large sand hourglass run to 13 hours (7 + 3 + 3), flip both the small and large sand hourglass over again to run another 3 hours.
