There are 25 horses and 5 tracks. Horses run at their original speed, regardless of how many races they run. There are no stopwatches or other equipment, and the only way to determine the order is ranking in a specific race.
What is the least number of races needed to determine the top 3 horses?
The interview was not a long one. It took about 30 -to 40 minutes. A bullk of the time went into sharing my technical experience and convincing the interviewer on how I will be a good fit for the company. I also had to listen mindfully to the interviewer when he was explaining the needs of the company and the kind of canditate they were looking for.
