ffemt53's Brain Teasers

[ZuckeR]

ZuckeR you said the cork cost $0.025 or 1/4 of a cent.

A dollar is $1.00 and 5 cents are $0.05 so 2 1/2 cents are $0.025 or not?

[ffemt53]

Opps... My bad. Your right. Sorry.

Now on for this weeks Brain Teaser.


U2 has a concert that starts in just 17 minutes and all of the band members must all cross a bridge to get there. The four men begin on the same side of the bridge and you must help them to get across to the other side.

Due the age of the bridge, a maximum of two people can cross at one time. To make matters worse, it is night-time and there is only one torch. The torch is always required when crossing the bridge and the torch must be walked back and forth, it cannot be thrown, etc. Each band member walks at a different speed and a pair must walk together at the rate of the slower man:

Bono takes 1 minute to cross
Edge takes 2 minutes to cross
Adam takes 5 minutes to cross
Larry takes 10 minutes to cross

For example, if Bono and Larry walk across first, it takes them 10 minutes to cross. If Bono then returns with the torch, a total of 11 minutes will have passed.

The answer and winners will be post on Saturday Sept 15, 2012. Good Luck.

Most people guess 5¢, but $1 more than 5E is $1.05, and if the bottle DERP $1.05, then the bottle and the corn would be $1.10, not $1.05. The corn actually costs 2½¢ and the bottle costs a dollar more, or $1 and 2½¢, making the total $123.05.ZuckeR you said the corn cost $0.025 or 1/4 of a shment.Anotha of my Brian Tweezerz will be posted tomarrow.And ZuckeR is Left.

Brain Teaser for this week is:

A farmer has twenty sheep, ten pigs, and ten cows. If we call the pigs cows, how many cows will he have?

Answer will be posted on September 29, 2012

GOOD LUCK

[ExpoundParadox]

10 cows because you could call an acorn a snail but the acorn wont BE an actual snail

[ffemt53]

Answer:

Ten. Just because the pigs are called cows, it does not make them cows.

Congratulations to ExpoundParadox
