NOTE : I have made this purposely long as to make you use your brain and avoid using google :P These are all easy anyway...

 

 

If you can figure out, I give you cookie

 

 

A 30 year old man married a 25 year old woman. She died at age 50

and her husband was so devastated that he cried for years. Ten

years after he stopped crying, he died. If he had lived to be 80,

how many years was he a widower?

 

 

I am eight letters long - "12345678"

My 1234 is an atmospheric condition.

My 34567 supports a plant.

My 4567 is to appropriate.

My 45 is a friendly thank-you.

My 678 is a name.

Q: What word am I?

 

What is at the beginning of eternity, the end of time, the

beginning of every end, and the end of every place?

 

You want to send a valuable object to a friend. You have a box

which is more than large enough to contain the object. You have

several locks with keys. The box has a locking ring which is more

than large enough to have a lock attached. But your friend does

not have the key to any lock that you have. Note that you cannot send

a key in an unlocked box, since it might be copied. How is this done?

 

 

If there are fifteen crows on a fence and the farmer shoots a

third of them, how many are left?

 

 

A man left a legacy of $10,000 to three relatives and their wives.

Together, the wives received $3960. June received $100 more than

Camille, and Martha received $100 more than June. Jack Smith was

given just as much as his wife, Horace Saunders got half as much

again as his wife, and Terry Conners received twice as much as his

wife. What was the first name of each man's wife?

 

 

There is a man that lives on the top floor of a very tall

building. Everyday he gets the elevator down to the ground floor

to leave the building to go to work. Upon returning from work

though, he can only travel half way up in the lift and has to

walk the rest of the way, unless it's raining! WHY?

 

 

A man went to a party and drank some of the punch, then

left early. Everyone else at the party who drank the punch

subsequently died of poisoning. Why did the man not die?

 

 

Use the digits 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6 once only, in this multiplication sum to make it correct.

? ?

x ?

? ? ?

 

 

How would you rearrange the letters in the words new door to make one

word? Note: There is only one correct answer.

 

 

If today is Tuesday, what is the day after the day before the day

before tomorrow?

 

 

If I were in Hawaii and dropped a bowling ball in a

bucket of water which is 45 degrees F, and dropped

another ball of the same weight, mass,and size in a

bucket at 30 degrees F, both of them at the same time,

which ball would hit the bottom of the bucket first?

Same question, but the location is in Canada?

 

 

A rich man named Stuart Laidlaw had been counting his money.

When he finished, he accidentally left a $1000.00 bill on his

desk but when he returned for it a short while later, it was

gone. Only two other persons could have seen the bill. One was

the cook; the other was the gardener. The cook told him that she

had hidden it for safekeeping under a green book that was on the

desk. But when they looked the bill was not there. The gardener

said he had found the bill where the cook had left it. He had

placed it inside the book, where he thought there was less

chance that somebody would find it. He had written down the page

numbers so that he would not forget them. The bill was between

pages 45 and 46, he said. But when they looked, there was no

money in the book. After Mr. Laidlaw had talked to the cook and

the gardener, he called the police. He was sure he knew who had

taken the money. Who was it, and how did he know?

 

and the age old riddle .... how can you use the numbers 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 mathmatically (multiply divide add and subtract (You must use ALL of them)) and only once to equal exactly 100 ??????

The letter E.

A 30 year old man married a 25 year old woman. She died at age 50

and her husband was so devastated that he cried for years. Ten

years after he stopped crying, he died. If he had lived to be 80,

how many years was he a widower?

25
If there are fifteen crows on a fence and the farmer shoots a

third of them, how many are left?

none, they would all fly away when the shot went off.

A man went to a party and drank some of the punch, then

left early. Everyone else at the party who drank the punch

subsequently died of poisoning. Why did the man not die?

Either A. He poisoned the punch after he drank it. B. Someone else poisoned the punch after he drank it. C. Since he left early, he hadn't drank enough to get comepletely infected. D It wasn't the punch that was poisoned. E. He threw up after drinking it.

How would you rearrange the letters in the words new door to make one

word? Note: There is only one correct answer.

very tricky. New door. rearrange the letters and you can spell "one word".

If today is Tuesday, what is the day after the day before the day

before tomorrow?

Today. Tuesday.

If I were in Hawaii and dropped a bowling ball in a

bucket of water which is 45 degrees F, and dropped

another ball of the same weight, mass,and size in a

bucket at 30 degrees F, both of them at the same time,

which ball would hit the bottom of the bucket first?

Same question, but the location is in Canada?

water freezes at 32 degrees. In both cases it would be the 45 degree one that hits first.

98+7+6-5-4-3+2-1=100

 

EASY. I'll work on the other ones

The letter E.

 

Correct.

 

25

 

Correct.

 

none, they would all fly away when the shot went off.

 

Correct.

 

Either A. He poisoned the punch after he drank it. B. Someone else poisoned the punch after he drank it. C. Since he left early, he hadn't drank enough to get comepletely infected. D It wasn't the punch that was poisoned. E. He threw up after drinking it.

 

Wrong. The poison was in the ice cubes and they had not quite melted yet when he drank from the punch.

 

very tricky. New door. rearrange the letters and you can spell "one word".

 

Correct.

 

Today. Tuesday.

 

Correct.

 

water freezes at 32 degrees. In both cases it would be the 45 degree one that hits first.

 

HAHAHAHAHAHA!!! No one can get this one ... Both questions, same answer: the ball in the bucket

of 45 degree F water hits the bottom of the bucket last.

Did you think that the water in the 30 degree F bucket is

frozen? Think again. The question said nothing about

that bucket having anything in it. Therefore, there is no

water (or ice) to slow the ball down...

 

98+7+6-5-4-3+2-1=100

 

Wrong. Let add to the question...

 

You must use the number 1

You must use the number 2

You must use the number 3

You must use the number 4

You must use the number 5

You must use the number 6

You must use the number 7

You must use the number 8

You must use the number 9

You must use the number 0

WITHOUT any double/triple ect. digits.

You may use these in any order.

 

You must use the mathmatical term multiply

You must use the mathmatical term divide

You must use the mathmatical term addition

You must use the mathmatical term subtraction

 

You cannot leave any behind or ignored or it is completely wrong. You may use them more than once except the numbers.

 

EX: 1 * 2 - 3 + 4 / 5 * 6 - 7 + 8 / 9 + 0 = 100 :wink:
