    A perfectly round pizza is cut with any number of slices across it. If the only measuring device you have is a super accurate weighing scales how could you determine if the intersection of the cuts is in the centre of the pizza or not. (The actual answer is not all that important - it is how they approach finding the answer you are looking at)

      This does not sound too challenging. Is the strategy here that if they can't work this one out they fail? If they can it does not seem to prove much.

        No - the strategy is to find out how they go about thinking about finding the solution. How would you solve it?
