A tower of coins
Mary hadmarked three circles on a piece of
paper and placed in one of them a R5 coin, a
R2 coin, a R1 coin and 10c piece , in that order
from top to bottom. "You see," she said, "that
each coin rests on a larger coin. The puzzle is
tomove all the coins fromwhere they are now
to the end circle, by moving one coin at a time
and never placing a coin on a smaller coin.
"That is easy", said Peter."What is the trick?"
"There isn't one," Mary replied. " All you have
to do is to take as fewmoves as possible."
How can this be done?
