LAST ISSUE'S PUZZLER: Planet Tri-Gravito, with ANSWER

On the very strange planet of Tri-Gravito the Yellowers, Reddians and Blueys live on three different planes of gravity. Each group's floor is the next group's wall. It is very confusing and even dangerous for everyone. An emergency plan has been proposed that all residents should wear brightly colored yellow, red or blue outfits in order to avoid severe injury. As you can see here, only the leader from each group is wearing the colored safety uniforms. The entire population of 15 people is visible in the picture.

QUESTION:
How many more of each color uniform (yellow, red, and blue) are needed?


For the answer, scroll down...









ANSWER: 4 more yellow, 5 more red, and 3 more blue uniforms.


This intriguing work of art, minus the colors, is "Relativity" from 1953, by M.C. Escher. More works by Escher may be found here.
