Time given: 10 minutes
Q1
On his calendar, Jack has 5 meetings each day,
Of which 30%, he has nothing to say.
3 in 5 times, the meetings have no decision in sight,
What is the rate at which Jack must accept a meeting invite?
Q2
Alex posts an update on Linkedin,
and gets reactions at the rate of 8 per minute.
A typlical Linkedin influencer has 1126 reactions per post,
At what rate per minute, would Alex reach there almost?
Q3
A fake news goes viral in 2.6 hours,
Make that 1.4 times as fast if it’s about our favourite movie star.
How many fake news detectors per hour would it take,
To control the spread of fake news, for sanity’s sake?
Q4
Every third post on social media reveals a spoiler,
From Game of Thrones, to Avengers, or some other potboiler.
Nick hasn’t seen either GoT or Avengers yet,
If he scrolled 7 posts/second, what’s the probability that a ruined ending he will get?
“Time’s up! Please turn off your screens”.
