From Gerald Lynton Kaufman’s The Book of Modern Puzzles (1954):
- All DROONS are the same size and shape.
- All green SLACKENS are the same size and shape.
- Twenty DROONS just fill up a MULDRUFF.
- All WALLAXES contain green SLACKENS.
- A green SLACKEN is 10% bigger than a DROON.
- A WALLAX is smaller than a MULDRUFF.
“If all MULDRUFFS and all WALLAXES are predominantly RED throughout, what is the largest possible number of green SLACKENS in a WALLAX?”
