Title: MYMY: Brain Teaser Game
Post by mylane on Aug 6th, 2004, 12:39pm
Hi guys...

I will give additional 30 points in your post counts on whoever answer my brain teaser correctly...

Once you answer the brain teaser question, I will give another question again...

Remember additional 30 posts in your post counts...

Lets begin:

Two of Anthony, Bernard and Charles are fighting each other.

(1) The shorter of Anthony and Bernard is the older of the two fighters.
(2) The younger of Bernard and Charles is the shorter of the two fighters.
(3) The taller of Anthony and Charles is the younger of the two fighters.

Who is not fighting?

In a certain bank the positions of cashier, manager, and teller are held by Brown Jones and Smith, though not necessarily respectively.

The teller, who was an only child, earns the least.

Smith, who married Brown's sister, earns more than the manager.

What position does each man fill?

A woman shoots her husband. Then she holds him under water for over 5 minutes. Finally, she hangs him. But 5 minutes later they both go out together and enjoy a wonderful dinner together. How can this be?

A murderer is condemned to death. He has to choose between three rooms. The first is full of raging fires, the second is full of assassins with loaded guns, and the third is full of lions that haven't eaten in 3 years. Which room is safest for him?
Title: Re: MYMY: Brain Teaser Game
Post by theragon on Sep 10th, 2004, 7:59pm
room three, there has to be a good reason why they havn't eaten for three years.
Title: Re: MYMY: Brain Teaser Game
Post by Hernando on Sep 11th, 2004, 6:25am
room three......for 3 years of not eating...all the lions died for sure.

another one:

To the posters

This is an unusual paragraph. I'm curious how quickly you can find out what is so unusual about it? It looks so plain you would think nothing was wrong with it! In fact, nothing is wrong with it! It is unusual though. Study it, and think about it, but you still may not find anything odd. But if you work at it a bit, you might find out! Try to do so without any coaching!
Title: Re: MYMY: Brain Teaser Game
Post by teagirl on Sep 11th, 2004, 3:34pm
what's so unusual about it is that there is no letter "e" to be found. E is the most common vowel used in the english language and this paragraph has none. I dont know if I'm right though cos thats the only unusual thing I noticed, the grammar and spelling being correct.
Title: Re: MYMY: Brain Teaser Game
Post by teagirl on Sep 11th, 2004, 3:41pm
What is it?

It is more powerful than God
More evil than Satan
The rich needs it
The poor has it
If you eat it, you die.
Title: Re: MYMY: Brain Teaser Game
Post by Hernando on Sep 11th, 2004, 9:23pm
Miss May, I think the answer is NOTHING.

nothing is more powerful than God
nothing is more evil than satan
rich people need nothing
poor people have nothing
and if you eat nothing you will die :-*

i hope im correct ;D
Title: Re: MYMY: Brain Teaser Game

Post by Hernando on Sep 22nd, 2004, 8:52pm
Ladies, there is really a solution for  the problem, its not gonna be easy but there is! To tell you the truth, I almost give up cause i thought the problem was really impossible to solved. You can do it ladies or else your math professor will all hunt you ;D
Title: Re: MYMY: Brain Teaser Game
Post by mylane on Sep 22nd, 2004, 9:54pm
Hernando, I have been thinking of this problem since yesterday, while I'm watching Mulawin I have my paper and pen with me.

This is how I get for not listening to my math professor, I better visit his grave. ;D

Same as tarantada I also got 46 as a highest value, I also got  20, 19....

hmm since u said there's a solution....then tarantada, analyn, we better try harder i guess. :-/
Title: Re: MYMY: Brain Teaser Game
Post by Analyn on Sep 23rd, 2004, 3:40am
hernando...i already applied different algebraic expressions and almost consume all our "office papers" but still can't get the answer...i gave up  [smiley=bigcry.gif]

here's some sample:

1+3*4/6=2.67; 1+3-4*6= 0; 1+3-4*6=0; (4/1)+3+6 = 13;4+[1+(3*6)]=23  ........ i have 80 solutions...but no 24 answer [smiley=bigcry.gif] can i cheat?  ;D
Title: Re: MYMY: Brain Teaser Game
Post by mylane on Sep 23rd, 2004, 4:53am
hmmmm....I had many solution but no 24 either. What pissed me off is that when I thought i got it but when i summed it up....its not 24...gosh... :-/

Hernando I will try to solve the problem but I need something in return from you...lol  :P Your pic wearing boxers...lol ;D

hmmmm....damn...I'm so desperate about this problem.  :-/

When first the marriage knot was ty’d
Between my wife and me,
My age was to that of my bride
As three times three to three
But now when ten and half ten years,
We man and wife have been,
Her age to mine exactly bears,
As eight is to sixteen;
Now tell, I pray, from what I’ve said,

What were our ages when we wed?

You are attending a business meeting which consists of only accountants and lawyers. From your previous dealings with these two professions, you know that accountants always tell the truth about everything, and lawyers always lie about something.

Two gentlemen, Sam and Adam, approach you. Sam introduces himself and says, "I am a lawyer, but Adam is an accountant."

Based on what you know from your previous dealings, what are each of the men's actual professions?
