6. In one morning, a ferry travelled from Island A to Island B and another ferry travelled
from Island B to Island A at a different speed. They started at the same time and met
first time at 8.30 am. The two ferries then sailed to their destinations, stopped for 15
minutes and returned. The two ferries met again at 9.23 am. Suppose the two ferries
travelled at a uniform speed throughout the whole journey, what time did the two
ferries start their journey?

7. Grace and Michelle are playing a game with

their teacher. The teacher places ten counters of
different colours and shapes on the table in
front of them as shown in the diagram below
The teacher tells them both that she has hidden
a coin under one of the counters. She then tells
Grace the shape of the counter she has hidden it under, and tells Michelle the colour
of the counter. She proceeds to ask them in turn whether they know which counter
the coin is hidden under. They can only reply yes or no, but they can listen to each
other’s answers. Their answers are as follows: Grace: “No”. Michelle: “No”. Grace:
“No”. Michelle: “Yes”. Assuming they answer “Yes” only when they are 100% sure and
“No” otherwise, which counter is the coin hidden under?

A. B. C. D. E. None of the above
