DUH! Of course.

I want to know how Adam knew that was his name if there was nobody to tell him?
Today's sweet puzzle.
I have a chocolate bar with grooves in it. The grooves divide the bar into a 3 by 6 pattern.
I want
to divide this into 18 pieces but the chocolate is thick enough that I an only break a single piece at a time.
What is the least number of breaks I can make?
RE: Puzzle a Day! - JJB - 17-09-2021
17 breaks?
RE: Puzzle a Day! - Jimny14 - 17-09-2021
That's how I read it JJB but I'm expecting a different answer
RE: Puzzle a Day! - Veggie - 17-09-2021
According to the Puzzle Pad, the answer is indeed 17.
I was expecting some really complicated solution!
Another odd puzzle coming up =
My ************* is ************ than my wallet.

Another easy one today!
Find a two digit number such that adding 9 to it reverses its digits.
RE: Puzzle a Day! - JJB - 18-09-2021
12 + 9 = 21
I got there first
are there any more numbers that qualify?
