Puzzle 199 


This BrainBashers safe has a rather unusual control panel.

In order to open the safe, you have to press every single square once only, in the correct sequence, ending on the square marked E.

Each square indicates which square to press next, for example, 2U means move up 2 squares and 3R means move right 3 squares.

Can you determine which square you must start with?

Note: this puzzle is not interactive, and the safe buttons cannot be clicked.

Puzzle 200 


I started a journey to my Aunt's yesterday with a full tank of gasoline, 10 gallons, but at that exact moment my gasoline tank sprang a leak.

I managed to drive 50 miles, in exactly one hour, before coming to a complete stop with an empty tank.

I know that the car manages 25 miles per gallon.

How quickly was I losing gasoline?
