Brain Teasers - Awesome

1. The strange sisters
It was the first day of school. The teacher had several children in her class. She asked all the new children to write down their names and their date of birth for her. The first two names she looked at were those of girls. She saw that they both had the same last name. They also had the same birthday - June 9,1973.
“Will Jane and June Campbell please stand?” asked the teacher.
Two girls stood up, and the teacher saw that they were just alike. “Oh, you’re twins,” she said.
One of the girls shook her head. “No,” she said. “We’re sisters, but we’re not twins.”
Q : How could they be sisters and be the same age, but not twins? 

2. The mystery of the missing fish

1. The strange sisters
Jane and June Campbell were sisters, born on the same day the same year. But they weren’t twins. They were two of a set of triplets. The other triplet, Jackie, was sick that day.

2. The mystery of the missing fish
The two fathers and two sons who went fishing were actually only three people a grandfather, his son, and his grandson. The grandfather was his son’s father, and of course the son was his grandson’s father. That makes two fathers. The grandfather’s son was one son, and his son was the other. So, if each of them caught one fish, only three fish were caught.

3. The tennis player
The first and last names are given in the last two lines of the poem. Jane was her first name, What was her last name. The two lines make one complete sentence. And there is a period at the end of the sentence, not a question mark. So the sentence doesn’t ask a question. It tells you that Jane was the first name and that What was her last name. Her name was Jane What.

Lateral Thinking

An interesting quiz for you Lateral Thinking abilities --- Think !


1. There is a man who 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?
(This is probably the best known and most celebrated of all lateral thinking puzzles. It is a true classic. Although there are many possible solutions which fit the initial conditions, only the canonical answer is truly
satisfying. )

~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~ ~

4. Why is it better to have round manhole covers than square ones?

This is logical rather than lateral, but it is a good puzzle that can be solved b y lateral thinking techniques. It is supposedly used by a very well-known software company as an interview question for prospective
employees.

~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~ ~

5. A man went to a part y and drank some of the punch. He then left early.

SOLUTIONS

~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~ ~

1. The man is very, very short and can only reach halfway up the elevator buttons. However, if it is raining then he will have his umbrella with him and can press the higher buttons with it.

2. The surgeon was his mother.

3. It was day time.

4. A square manhole cover can be turned and dropped down the diagonal of the manhole. A round manhole cannot be dropped down the manhole. So for safety and practicality, all manhole covers should be round.

5. The poison in the punch came from the ice cubes. When the man Drank the punch, the ice was fully frozen. Gradually it melted, poisoning the punch.

6. The man had hiccups. The barman recognized this from his speech and drew the gun in order to give him a shock. It worked and cured the hiccups-so the man no longer needed the water.

House Rent

An ant knocks on the door of a house.

The house owner opens the door.

"I want a place to stay," said the ant.

"I have a vacant room which you can occupy for free of cost," said the owner.

The ant went inside and occupied the vacant room.

After some days, the ant brought in another ant and requested to the owner, "Can you please allow this ant to stay with me?"

"Oh sure, you can do so without paying any rent," said the owner.

After some days the ant brought one more ant and requested the owner to allow the ant to stay with it.

The owner agreed to it without asking for any rent.

This continued as the ant brings in one more and and the owner agrees for it.

One fine day, the ant brought in a tenth ant and requested the owner to allow him also to stay with it.

The owner said, "OK, you can all stay here but you all need to pay rent."

Now the question is: Why did the owner ask for rent when the last ant came in?

World's Worst Riddles

A friend purchased "The World's Worst Riddles", a slim book at a second-hand bookshop.


Published in 1968, its Introduction says that by "worst", it might mean "best".


However... here are some for mathematicians:


======================================


Q: A man bought 90 hens. He placed 30 on the first perch, 30 on the second, and the remaining 30 on the top perch. How many hens did he own?
**
*
*
*
*
*
*
*
*
A: Only the ones on the first perch because the others were on higher perches (hire purchase).


========================================


Q: If it took eight men eight hours to build a brick fence how long would it take five men to build it?
**
*
*
*
*
*
*
*
*A: None, because the eight men have done the work.


========================================


Q: If six magpies are sitting on a fence and one is shot, how many are left?

**
*
*
*
*
*
*
*
*
A: None, because the others flew away.


========================================


Q: Two's company, three's a crowd but what is four and five?

**
*
*
*
*
*
*
*
*
A: Nine.

How Many Legs?

There are 7 gals on a bus. Each has 7 bags. In each bag, there are 7 bigcats. For every bigcats, there are 7 little cats. How many legs are there in the bus?

It needs simple calculation!! Please dont tell that there are no legs in the bus!!!!!

Riddle me this: What is yours, but is used by Everyone else ?

(Hint: You would only require to use it rarely).

HOW SMART IS YOUR RIGHT FOOT?

This is hysterical. You have to try this. It is absolutely true. I guess there are some things that the brain cannot handle.

You have to try this, it takes 2 seconds. I could not believe this!!! It is from an orthopedic surgeon............... This will boggle your mind and you will keep you trying over and over again to see if you can outsmart your foot, but, you can't... It's pre-programmed in your brain!

1. Without anyone watching you (they will think you are GOOFY.....) and while sitting at your desk in front of your computer, lift your right foot off the floor and make clockwise circles.

2. Now, while doing this, draw the number '6' in the air with your right hand. Your foot will change direction.

I told you so!!! And there's nothing you can do about it! You and I both know how stupid it is, but before the day is done you are going to try it again, if you've not already done so.
