A complex logic riddle from the book “The Starry Adventures of Numi and Nika” by Lyuben Dilov
The girl Numi, from the planet Pyrrha, asks the earthly boy Niki a riddle:
One glof and two mulfs weigh as much as one dabel and four laci. In turn, one dabel weighs as much as two laci. One glof and three laci weigh together as much as one dabel, two mulfs and six kraks. One glof weighs as much as two dabels. The question is, how many kraks must be added to one mulfa to get the weight of two dabels and one lazi?
Answer with a hint on the solution:
So, Nikolai Buyanovsky took out a draft notebook from his briefcase, or, as he dubbed it, a notebook on all kinds of knowledge, and a pen, and Numi slowly began to dictate to him the weight of all these mysterious dabels, mulfs, lazi and kraks. And when he, having written everything down in order and swapped a few things around in his mind, composed several short equations, and then, suddenly realizing, brought the weight of all the data to the weight of the same mysterious creatures, the answer seemed to come out by itself. The problem was logical, and in this part Niki Buyan was a god and a king.
“Eight,” he said confidently. “We need to add eight kraks to this mulfa of yours.”
