How much do cucumbers weigh?
The task is simple, not more complicated than the task of the rope along the equator of the Earth, but it belongs to the same surprising type =)
So, there was a bag of cucumbers that weighed 100 kg. Cucumbers were 99% water. The bag was exposed to the sun, and the cucumbers there a little dried up, dried out and began to consist of 98% water. How much did the bag of cucumbers weigh as a result? (The weight of the bag is neglected.)
