Registan,

how about 4100?
There are 4x1000 and 30+40+20+10=100 ----- 4000+100=4100
Or
1000+30=1030,
1030+1000=2030,
2030+40=2070,
2070+1000=3070,
3070+20=3090,
3090+1000=4090,
4090+10=4100

So total is 4100, isn't it?

i tried, i wasn't that good at mathematics so if I'm wrong sorry....

There are 10 white, 7 red and 5 green balls in the box. How many balls, at least, without looking, you must take out from the box to have balls with all color?
Nom: Re: English puzzles and logical questions.
Yuborildi: The_Alchemist 12 Oktyabr 2008, 19:13:15
Registan,

I'm not sure about that but what you if my answer is 18?
Because if you take 5 balls out all of them could be green, but if you take 7 balls out all could be red, if you take 10 again all could be white and if you take 12 balls out they could be red and green and same thing with number 17 which means if you take 17 balls out they could be white balls and red balls only. So for the 100% result you need to take 18 balls out which you won't miss any color.
But if you are extremly lucky you can collect all colours in 3 shots and for extremly unlucky people 18 is the perfect number....
But I'm not sure in my answer, I'm just trying to answer....

Bravo Alchemist! You are right, again. I really envy you. :) Hey, here is the next question. I think it makes u think deeper. :)

You are driving down the road in your car on a wild, stormy night, when you pass by a bus stop and you see three people waiting for the bus

    * An old lady who looks as if she is about to die.
    * An old friend who once saved your life.
    * The perfect partner you have been dreaming about.

Knowing that there can only be one passenger in your car, whom would you choose?

The area of a right triangle is computed by multiplying the base times the height and dividing by two. The pieces of the puzzle have an area of 32 square units. Although they can be assembled to form what appears to be a 13×5 right triangle, they actually form quadrilaterals that are slightly smaller or slightly bigger than a 13×5 right triangle. The long side of the these triangles, i.e, the hypotenuse, is not a straight line.

The top figure has an area of 32 square units. The bottom figure, including the empty square, has an area of 33 square units. A real 13×5 right triangle would have an area of 32.5 square units. The distortion is difficult to see because one square of the picture is approximately 3% of the area.

The distortion can be seen more clearly when the empty square constitutes a larger percentage of the area, as in the figure below where 1 square represents 13% of the area.

Can u find the missed mistake if there is any?

Let a & b each be equal to 1.
Since a ^ b are equal,
b^2 = ab (eq.1)
Since a equals itself, it is obvious that
a^2 = a^2 (eq.2)
Subtract equation 1 from equation 2.
(a^2) - (b^2) = (a^2)-ab (eq. 3)
We can factor both sides of the equation:
(a^2)-ab equals a(a-b).
Likewise, (a^2)-(b^2) equals (a + b)(a - b)
(Nothing fishy is going on here. This statement is perfectly true. Plug in numbers and see for yourself!) Substituting into the equation 3, we get
(a+b)(a-b) = a (a-b)
So far, so good. Now divide both sides of the equation by (a-b) and we get
a + b = a
b = 0
But we set b to 1 at the very beginning of this proof, so this means that
1 = 0

wow! im lost, lol.

Everyone knows that u can never devide any number by zero, in this proof a=1, b=1 and (a-b)=0. At the end of the proof both sides devided by (a-b). I think that is the mistake.  ;)

Mars,

You are wrong because if there are 25 chickens then it'll be
25X2=50 chicken legs

74-50=24 cow legs

24 legs means 6 cows
so 25 chickens plus 6 cows total 31 animals.

Total number of animals in the question is 30 ea.

I think the answer is 23.

Here are some logical puzzles:

1. What can be full of water and full of holes at at the same time?

2. In a game of chess, how many different choices do you have for your first move?

3. It's been around for millions of years, but it's no more than a month old. What is it?

4. Lizzie is 16 years younger than Joanna. In 10 years time Joanna will be twice as old as Lizzie. How old are they now?

5. What are the next four letters in this series.

Y Y H L Y E Y T ...

6. ENUMERATION is an anagram of which other 11 character word in the English language?

7. Can you decode the following to find a hidden message? You've probably got a tool to do so with you now.

Q5A6Q3 A1Z6A2Q2Q3Q4 Q8A2 A1Q5 Q6Q9Q7Q4 A4Q8Z6AGQ3Q4Q5Q8Q10A2

8. What gets wetter and wetter the more it dries?

9. What time is it when the number of minutes since midnight is nine times the number of minutes before noon?

And the last: How many black circles can you see in the image below?
