saw this on FB think I said 4

You've got to be very careful because a lot of the TUBES are blocked - look carefully murraymints.

[Ken4155]

The only one of the four which isn't blocked is number 5 - can't be that obvious, surely?

[hc4361]

It is that obvious

[Ken4155]

Hardly a brain-teaser then, hc:-/

I seen it on fb and I thought cup 1 as it overflows - then, I'm hopeless at these things

[Ken4155]

In fact, given the obvious 'wastage', it doesn't look as if there's enough coffee in the 'decanter' to fill any of the cups. Just saying :-)

Looking at this, 9 because it has no blocks and is nearest the filler and all the tubes are low
I'm not looking at it anymore :)

[bhg481]

The tube to 9 is blocked right at the end ducksie.

9's tube is blocked at the end

I also picked 4 but when you see the solution and the obvious thing I missed then the right answer is also obvious.

Ken, 5 might just get some but it'll be cold

[ducksie]

Ah thanks, now I know, only one cup can be filled or at least get some coffee that's 5 as all others are blocked - not looking at it anymore now haha
