Hi Everyone,

Spectrum Economics is holding its eleventh solve the puzzle contest. This post contains 4 puzzles. The first person to solve all the puzzles wins 10 SBD (5 SBD for this contest plus another 5 SBD from last week’s contest). If we do not get a winner, the prize money of this contest will be added to the available winnings of the next puzzle contest.

How to Enter

To enter requires 1 upvote. Each entrant into the contest is only allowed 1 attempt. The attempt needs to be done in the comments section of the post. In previous contests, I have allowed 2 attempts but because of the number of responses I have been receiving, my steem power has been struggling to keep up.

Some questions have several parts to them, all parts of each question need to be answered correctly for a chance to win.

I expect the answers to be presented in following format:

Answer 1a, 1b, 1c
Answer 2
Answer ? = …, odd one out is …
Answer Bill should bet $... on Sprinter …. This gives a Bill …% chance of winning $1,000,000

The closing date and time for the contest is 6PM USA Eastern Time 28/01/2018. Responses after this time will not be accepted. The answers will be provided in the comments section after the contest closes. The explanations for the answers will be provided in a separate post a few days after the contest closes.

The winner of the contest will be announced in the comments section. The 10 SBD will be paid to the winner as soon as I receive the payout from the post. All attempts in the comments section will receive an upvote regardless of answers provided. That’s right, I am also rewarding participation. Good luck everybody. The value of the upvote will depend upon my voting power at the time.
