MVP Ghost of Gijs Posted April 13, 2014 MVP Share Posted April 13, 2014 Two. Easy if you follow it with your finger/cursor. But I probably made a mistake somewhere along the line. Link to comment

Guest magw33d Posted April 13, 2014 Share Posted April 13, 2014 I think it's two, but my mind can't comprehend this. Link to comment

Reacher Posted April 13, 2014 Share Posted April 13, 2014 3 am, so, I could be wrong, but having thought about it, the maths indicates: 17 wheels, 2 standard links and two inverse links. Effectively, both sets cancel the other out, which leaves us with the 17 wheels. An even number of wheels would lead to 1. An odd number of wheels will lead to 2. So... 2. Link to comment

MVP Ghost of Gijs Posted April 13, 2014 MVP Share Posted April 13, 2014 Actually, the quickest way is to determine the direction the first cog is going (left), and then just move along to the next one and the next, following these rules: - if it's just another cog, switch direction (from left to right or vice versa) - if it's a linked cog, don't switch direction - if it's an inverse linked cog, switch direction And then just do that for each of them. Left, right, left, etc... Last one is left so 2. But I like Reacher's way better. More logical, more mathematical. Link to comment
Vassal Posted April 14, 2014 Share Posted April 14, 2014 Impossible to find the answer without thinking therefor, impossible. Link to comment

Easy with a little patience and double checking. Link to comment
