think about it, but you still may not find anything odd. But if you

coaching!

285) Ask one of the sisters which path their sister would tell you to take.
Let's say the left hand path is the correct one to follow.
The sister that lies knows their truthful sister would tell you the
left hand path, so as they always lie they will tell you the right hand
path.
The honest sister knows their lying sister will tell you the right
hand path and because they're honest, they will tell you this. So you
should follow the opposite path to that which you are told, regardless
of which sister tells you.
If you pick a gold coin, you know that chest must contain all gold
coins (it can't be the 50/50 chest because all the chests are incorrectly
labeled). So the chest labelled silver must be the 50/50 chest and the
one labeled gold must be the silver chest.
On the other hand if you pick a silver coin, you know that chest must
contain all silver coins, the one labeled silver must be the gold chest
and the one labeled gold must be the 50/50 chest.
287) The number 8. On its side, it looks like the symbol for infinity and
when you cut it in half, it looks like two zeroes.
First, light both ends of one rope and only one end of the other
rope. This will cause the first rope to burn out in 30 minutes (as you
lit both ends it will burn in half the time as if you'd only lit one end).
When the first rope burns out, there will be 30 minutes left on the
second rope (as each rope takes one hour to burn when lit from one
end).
So then, light the other end of the second rope so both ends of it
are now burning. This rope will now burn out in another 15 minutes.
289) Turn both hourglasses over as you start boiling the egg.
After 7 minutes the 7-minute hourglass will run out. Turn it over
to start again.
In another 4 minutes the 11-minute hourglass will run out.
At this point, turn over the 7-minute hourglass. It will now take
another 4 minutes to run out.
When it does so, your egg will have been boiling for exactly 15
minutes (7 minutes + 4 minutes + 4 minutes).
