Dear All,
Please solve this:
Mr. X has gone to Temple A, B.C. These temples have a magic pond each. It will double whatever you have in your hand when you come out of the pond. For example, if you have Rs. 1/- in your hand, when you come out of the pond, you will have Rs. 2/- in your hand.
Mr. X has a certain number of flowers. The terms and conditions of this quiz are that you have to surrender an equal number of flowers to each temple, and when you come out of Temple C, no flowers should be in your hand.
Please find out how many flowers Mr. X was having with him when he entered Temple A and how many flowers he surrendered at each temple.

Dear All,
This is the answer to the temple puzzle.
Mr. X has taken 7 flowers with him to Temple A, taken a bath in Pond A, and received 14 flowers. He offered 8 flowers at the first temple, leaving 6 flowers. After taking a bath in Pond B, he got 12 flowers. He offered 8 flowers at Temple B, and had 4 flowers remaining. Upon entering Temple C, he took a bath in the pond and received 8 flowers. He offered 8 flowers and had no flowers left with him at the end.
(The flowers taken in the fold of 7 and offered in the fold of 8 may also be the answer to this puzzle.)
