A FARMER HAS 25 COWS NUMBERED FROM 1 TO 25 SUCH THAT COW-1 GIVES 1 Ltr . milk cow 2- gives 2 litr milk and the so on. these cows are to be distribute amoung 5 sons , such that the milk from the shared cows should be to equal quantity foe each son. write all possible distribution options .

We have 1liter, 2litre... etc. till 25 litre giving cows

So, we give each son a cow using this method

1st son : Cow 1, Cow 25, Cow 4, Cow 22, Cow 7, Cow 19, Cow 10, Cow 16

2nd son : Cow 2, Cow 24, Cow 5, Cow 21, Cow 8, Cow 18, COW 11,Cow 15

3rd son : Cow 3, Cow 23, Cow 6, Cow 20, Cow 9, Cow 17, Cow 12, Cow 14

 

I suggest you sell cow 13.

The total milk given by the cows is 325 litres, which is not divisible by 3 anyway
