A Dollar for a Change

You and your parents are wandering inside a department store of a mall. You found an interesting item (whatever item it is) and you want to buy it. The price of that item is $97. You borrow $50 to your father and $50 to your mother in total of $100 enough to buy an item worth of $97. After claiming the item and $3 for the change. You give $1 to your father and $1 to your mother and the remaining debt is $49 each, a total of $98 and $1 left in your hand in total of $99. If you subtract it from $100 as the total borrowed money to buy that item will be $1.

Where did $1 go???

Point it out!

Have you ever heard the phrase, "never point a finger at someone because there will always be three pointing back at you".

If there were three people talking to each other, and two of them point one finger at a 3rd person. If the third person points one finger from each hand at each of the other two, how many fingers will be pointing at the third person?

Formula

If you use a certain formula on 13, you end up with 7.

Under the same formula, 2352 becomes 16, 246 becomes 14, 700 turns into 16, and 1030 becomes 14.

What would 9304 become?


Hint:

I strongly recommend that you use a scientific calculator.

New Diet Craze!

Ariel recently came back from a rather long vacation and returned nearly 15 pounds lighter. When he showed off his new appearance to his younger brother Arriane, he also bragged that he ate as much as he wanted, most of the time eating non-stop. Arriane was puzzled; how could this be true? Ariel had the answer.

What was Ariel's secret diet?

Going Home

While going home, a man noticed that a woman was following him. He walked for ten minutes, then got home at 7:00. She continued walking in circles around his building. She completed one circle in ten minutes, then another in 15 min., then another in 20 min. At nine o' clock, the man saw her fall asleep outside. During which circle did she fall asleep?

Hint:
No math required.

Riddle?

Guess the word or phrase I've been wanting to tell you.


Youth vanishes when I always come
Over me is the brightest light
Under me are lovers looking at me

At morning, I can't live
Rest is my duty on morning
Every night I come to work

To be more than a billion years old
Rough work it should be
In times, I get tired but still rocking
Covering darkness to light
Keep on working to give you path
End is impossible for me
Darkness never prevail.

Survival

There is man locked up in a room, which has no windows or any way out except for a firmly locked door that can't be destroyed by any means. There is an open tap at a corner of the room from which great amounts of water get into the room. What can the man do to escape from drowning, if he only has a large rope and a bucket that can hold up to 5 liters of water?

Which Side?

You are standing outside a building, and it soon begins to get cold. Not stopping at being cold, the wind starts to blow from the east at 30 miles an hour. The wind chill is around negative 30 degrees. On which side of the building should you position yourself to keep warm?

Somebody is Nobody, But Who is Everyone?

If Nobody didn't do anything, then Who did. But if Somebody would have done something, Everyone would have been OK. If Everyone would have helped, Who would get the credit. But Who did it....

One Question; Leads in Heaven

Suppose you die and awaken in a room with two doors and one guard at each door. A voice speaks to you and tells you that one door leads to eternity in Heaven and one door leads to an eternity in Hell. You are allowed to approach a guard and ask him a question and only one question that will help you determine which door to choose since the doors are unlabeled and you are unable to look through a door before entering.

However, you are also told that one of the guards ALWAYS lies and one ALWAYS tells the truth, and you cannot know which one is which.

What question do you ask so that, no matter which guard you ask (remember, you CANNOT know which one you are asking), you get an answer that guarantees that you choose the correct door?

Remember, you must choose the door correctly that leads to Heaven.
