Default A Few Logic Problems...

1.Twice ten are six of us, six are but three of us. Nine are but four of us. What are we?

2.There are 50 books on a shelf, each book is 2 inches thick. How far is it from page one of volume 1 to the last page of volume 50?

3.Kevin likes the opera but not the ballet. He was a boxer but won't get a bulldog. He will travel to Calorado but not to Alaska. He collects climes but not nickels. Does he like bananes or grapes?

These are possible to solve.

Um, I'm sure that's a trick question, if it wasn't, why are you asking it o_O. Are they out of order or something? or does it go from left to right 50 to 1. If it's the latter, 98, if not, 100.

Brainmaster is correct. 98. Solve the other two.

1. Letters
2. It really depends since the questions is really vague. If you assume there are multiple volumes per book, then 2 inches (about). If not, anywhere from about 0 (stacked on top of each other 50 and 1 that is) to over 100 if there is space.
3. Yes.

If twice ten are six of us,
But six are just three,
And nine are just four of us,
Then what can we be?

If you want more of us,
Take ten which is three,
Or twelve which is six of us,
Now do you see?

isnt that the full riddle?

btw... its letters like vxdx said
(twenty is 6 letters, six is 3, nine is 4, ten is 3, and twelve is 6)

id answer the rest but im in school

o and to keep u guys busy...

An old friend of the family left $999,999 to two fathers and two sons to be split equally.
After careful consideration they each happily recieved $333,333. Why and how was this possible?

He likes grapes in number 3.
It's an alphabetical thing, no?

There was a grandfather, a father, and a son. Two fathers, two sons. Easy.

Are you talking about percents? You have one very odd school if that's so.

AND THEY HAVE WIRELESS INTERNET ACCESS WITH RETARDED TECHNICIANS 'observing' OUR EVERY MOVE. my special school owns urs)

My year has a bunch of insane people (Including me)

The class averages are typically around 105% (They were alst year anyway, closer to 95 now because there's no extra credit in adademic classes in our school), everyones in like, atleast 4 extra curicular activities, everyones in band, I mean, like, everyone, and when the teacher says some people got B's on a certain assignment, there are tears :P.
