Riddle of the Day

[acoustikarl]

Alright guys, gonna change it up a little. I'm going to put in some actual Logic puzzles. I'll put up the main part of the puzzle now, then one of the sets of questions. I will use the same puzzle for a few days until the answers have all been figured out and all the questions for that particular puzzle have been exhausted.

LOGIC PUZZLE 1:

The government of an island nation is in the process of deciding how to spend it's limited income. It has $7 million left in it's budget and eight programs to choose among. There is no provision in the contitution to have a surplus, and each program has requested the minimum amount they need; in other words, no program may be partially funded. The programs and their funding requests are:

• Hurrican preparedness: $2.5 million
• Harbor Improvements: $1 million
• School music program: $0.5 million
• Agricultural subsidy program: $2 million
• National radio: $0.5 million
• Small business loan program: $3 million
• International airport: $4 million

FIRST QUESTION:
If the legislature decides to fund the agricultural subsidy program, national radio, and the small business loan program. the only other single program that can be funded is:

1. Hurricane preparedness
2. Harbor improvements
3. School music program
4. Senate office building remodeling
5. International Airport

Let the games begin!

This should be fun!
With those three programs adding up to 5.5 Million there is 1.5 million left. That should fund two more programs, the Harbor Improvements (1 mill) and the School Music Program (.5 mill).

Edit: OK now that you've added that other program it would be the Senate office building remodeling: $1.5 million
