Problem of the Week

Over the past several years, Ima Saver collected nickels (5 cent coins) and dimes (10 cent coins) and put them in his pink piggy bank. Only nickels and dimes went in his bank. Finally, one day, the bank was full so Ima counted his money and discovered that he had exactly $10 in the bank. He also observed that he had 11 more nickels than dimes in his bank. How many coins were in Ima Saver's pink piggy bank?

Can you solve this problem?


                                        Problem

A positive integer is written on the back of each of three puzzle pieces. The
numbers are not necessarily different but the total of the three numbers is 14.
Each puzzle piece is placed on a table so that the number cannot be seen.
Alpha, Beta and Gamma each select one of the pieces, being careful not to let
the other two see the number that is printed on the piece. Alpha says, after
looking at his puzzle piece, I know that Beta and Gamma have different
numbers." Beta then says, I already knew that all three numbers were
different." At this point, Gamma confidently exclaims, I now know what all
three of the numbers are!" What were the numbers and who had which
number?
