One sheet
The newspaper Lucky reads has 24 pages: six large sheets folded in half and nested inside one another. Chico pulled out one sheet, the one with page 5 on it. Which other pages are printed on it?
Answer: 6, 19 and 20. The outer sheet carries 1, 2, 23 and 24, the next one 3, 4, 21 and 22, the third 5, 6, 19 and 20. Pages on the same sheet pair up to the same sum, first plus last: 5 + 20 = 6 + 19 = 25.
