You are on a strict medical regimen that requires you to
take two types of pills each day. You must take exactly one A pill and exactly
one B pill at the same time. The pills are very expensive, and you don’t want
to waste any. So you open the bottle of A pills, and tap one out into your
hand. Then you open the bottle of B pills and do the same thing – but you make
a mistake, and two B pills come out into your hand with the A pill. But the
pills are all exactly identical. There is no way to tell A pills apart from B
pills. Is it possible to satisfy your regimen and take exactly one of each pill
at the same time, without wasting any pills? Give answer as below
