Before any changes I'm a spice. My first is altered and I'm a hand-warming device. My second is changed and I'm trees in full bloom. The next letter change makes a deathly old tomb. Change the fourth to make a fruit of the vine. Change the last for a chart plotted with lines.

Holmes got up and looked out the window just in time to see three neighborhood kids who were brothers run around a corner. Their names were John Lewis, Mark Lewis and Bob Lewis.
The next day Holmes got a note on his door that read "? Lewis. He broke your window."

Which of the three Lewis brothers should Sherlock Holmes question about the incident?

ok,another one:



In a country, there are over 100 streets. Street 1 is named First Street, street 2 is named Second Street, and so on and so forth.

A traveller decides to walk through all these streets in the country. He could find all the streets except Street 62. No matter how hard he tried, he could not find it.

He later found that the locals had given the street another name.

What is the name?

[Ramadhan]

street 62 = sixty second street

sixty seconds = 1 minute

so it must be minute street

[Ramadhan]

Next:

On my way to Madinah I saw an old man with 12 of his children, each child brought 2 wives, and each wife had 3 camels, and each camel was carrying a bag of dates. How many were going to Madinah?

[alhamdulilaah]

street 62 = sixty second street

sixty seconds = 1 minute

so it must be minute street

MashaAllah. Yes, u r right Brother Ramadhan. A star for you.

Ok, here is another one.


Once upon a time, in a kingdom far, far away, lived a man of few talents, but he was as greedy as anyone can be. He stole, he lied and he cheated only for the sake of money and his ever-increasing treasure. One day he was trying to rob a child of his money on the edge of a lake. Innocently, the child pushed him into the lake and ran to safety.

Seeing the greedy man drowning, two passing villagers tried to help him. The first one quickly said, "Take my hand and I'll try to drag you out! Don't worry, you will be safe!" The second one rushed to help as well and stated, "Here old man, over here! Everything will be fine if you give me your hand."

The old man hesitated for a second, then took the hand of the first villager. Why?

[Endymion]

He thought the second man wants his hand,in real :hmm:

There are 5 tennis games played simultaneously. How many different forecasts are possible?

[syed1]

can you give more description? Forecast for what? the winning team? if there are 5 games being play at once then after each have played 1 match there will be exactly 5 winners ?

[syed1]

Okay guys here is a brain teaser for you all!!!

There are 5 Guys

There are 4 Togglers

A Toggler is a person who when asked a question will either LIE the first time or tell the truth the first time, and every subsequent question asked after the answer will be the opposite..

for example: 1st question: what is your name? - bob (lie)
2nd question: what is your name? - syed (truth)
3rd question: what is your name? -johnny (lie)
4th question: what is your name?- Syed (truth)

so now you should understand the definition of a "toggler".

There are 5 guys in total, 4 are "togglers" and one of them is a TRUTH TELLER who only tells the truth.

your objective is to find which person is the TRUTHTELLER by asking 2 questions after which you should should know who the TRUTH TELLER is...

The question can be any question and can be asked to any of the 5 guys, for example 1 question to 1 guy and another to another guy or one question to the same guy etc..

this is a really tricky one so if you think you got it put the solution here! (no cheating)

There is enough information provided. It's simple math.
The correct answer is 32. Every game is an independent event with 2 possible results. The total number of possibilities is 2^5.

^ I'll try to answer before 'Abd Al-Maajid posts, *hurries up*

I'll ask the same guy 2 questions.

Question 1 : Are you a truth teller ?

a) if the first answer is Yes then he is whether the truth teller (so he will answer the 2nd question with truth), or he is a toggler who lied by saying "yes", so for the next question he will answer with truth.
So i'll ask : Question 2 : who is the the truthteller ? and he will show me the truthteller (who can be himself).

b) if the first answer is No , then he is certainly a toggler, but saying the truth the first time. So the next time he will lie. I'll ask him : Question 2 : show me a toggler, and because he will lie, he will show me the truthteller.

perfect answers and the two boneless cows are the only sources for the newborn baby for milk, I think that would make it clear for others but at the same time I just wana apologise to all of you cause I saw no harm in saying the breasts of the newborn baby's mother( which are the only sources for his living after Allah)...this is something very normal and natural and also I didn't mean to mention them in indecent way...but next time will try to avoid such riddles just to not make the environment uncomfortable...in shaa Allah...

It reminds me of a very funny joke :

"George W. Bush's Intelligence Quiz" joke



While visiting England, George W. Bush is invited to tea with the Queen. He asks her what her leadership philosophy is. She says that it
is to surround herself with intelligent people. He asks how she knows if they're intelligent.




"I do so by asking them the right questions," says the Queen. "Allow me to demonstrate."
She phones Tony Blair and says, "Mr. Prime Minister. Please answer this question: Your mother has a child, and your father has a child,
and this child is not your brother or sister. Who is it?"



Tony Blair responds, "It's me, ma'am."
"Correct. Thank you and good-bye, sir," says the Queen. She hangs up and says, "Did you get that, Mr. Bush?"


"Yes ma'am. Thanks a lot. I'll definitely be using that!"




Upon returning to Washington, he decides he'd better put the Chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee to the test.



He summons Jesse Helms to the White House and says, "Senator Helms, I wonder if
you can answer a question for me."




"Why, of course, sir. What's on your mind?"
"Uh, your mother has a child, and your father has a child, and this child is not your brother or your sister. Who is it?"



Helms hems and haws and finally asks, "Can I think about it and get back to you?"





Bush agrees, and Helms leaves. He immediately calls a meeting of other senior senators, and they puzzle over the question for several hours,
but nobody can come up with an answer.


Finally, in desperation, Helms calls Colin Powell at the State Department and explains his problem.




"Now look here, Colin Powell, your mother has a child, and your father has a child, and this child is not your brother, or your sister. Who
is it?"



Powell answers immediately, "It's me, of course, you dumb ass."



Much relieved, Helms rushes back to the White House and exclaims, "I know the answer, sir! I know who it is! It's Colin Powell!"





And Bush replies in disgust, "Wrong, you dumb ass, It's Tony Blair!"

^ Why not crab and tamarind?

hmmm I guess because this combination is not popular in my country , that's why :statisfie

[syed1]

okay I got one

I a Chinese man, a Japanese man and a Korean man were sitting together have a lunch...

The Japanese man said: hey, you want some of my rice? the Chinese man said sure as well as the Korean man...

the Japanese man being the sly Samaritan he is said, okay you may have the rice but you cannot eat with this finger and showed his right hand and lifted his pinky finger.. "you can use any other finger but you may not use this finger while you eat"...

the other men looked puzzled and wondered why they could not use that pinky finger ...

why could they not use that pinky finger?

avoiding the question are we .. I think not.. whos got an answer for me

[Scimitar]

probably coz it was the Japanese guys finger lol

[Muslim Woman]

:sl:


need hint.

[syed1]

Mr. Schimitar has got he right answer. They could not use the pinky finger since it was not their ​ finger to begin with

[ariginality]

It reminds me of a very funny joke

lol I was thinking the same thing when I read the question! Love that joke;D

[ariginality]

Here's the toughest of all time lol:
A king was about to hang 3 men for their crimes. There were 3 red hoodies and 2 blue ones. He turned off all the lights and put a red hoody on each while hiding the 2 blue ones. He turned the lights back on and they could see the color of the hoodies the other 2 men were wearing were red but could not see their own. The king said the one of you who is smart enough to know the color of his own hoody may live. How would the smartest among them know the color of their hoody was red?:hiding:

“Falling into sin is like falling in water, the faster you get out the less likely you are going to drown.”

But you only learn to swim from experience

[Innocent Soul]

^ When we get inside water and we swim and our experience increases but when we fall into a sin and when we keep doing the sin for a long time we get used to it and don't feel any difficulty in doing that.

"Say (O Muhammad to mankind): "If you (really) love Allah, then follow me (i.e. accept Islamic monotheism, follow the Quran & the Sunnah), Allah will love you & forgive you your sins. And Allah is Oft-Forgiving, Most Merciful." (Quran: 3:31)

“Sin is not hurtful because it is forbidden, but it is forbidden because it is hurtful”
Benjamin Franklin

[ariginality]

When we get inside water and we swim and our experience increases but when we fall into a sin and when we keep doing the sin for a long time we get used to it and don't feel any difficulty in doing that.

But if the water is shallow you wouldn't drown anyways and if it's not and you don't know how to swim then you don't stand a chance!
;D

[Innocent Soul]

^ What if your friend wants to kill you :p maybe he can add something poisonous to the pool and you'll die at the first place instead of drowning and then dieing :D.

Is there any new questions <that does not involve changing a light bulb> ?

[marwen]

Ok simple one :

A bridge will collapse in 17 minutes.

4 people want to cross it before it will collapse. It is a dark night and there is only one torch between them.

Only two people can cross at a time.

"A" takes a minute to cross.
"B" takes 2 minutes.
"C" takes 5
and "D" takes 10 minutes

How do they all cross before the bridge collapses?

[ariginality]

Well, of course, if they're bright enough to know the bridge is going to collapse to the precise minute, they can simply make more torches, take another road, go around, or since "A" is so fast, he can just pick each 1 up n cross the bridge and come back for the others. Of course, if you're boring and looking for the traditional answer: A crosses with each one and comes back for the next which will equate to them all crossing in exactly 17 min.

Here is a tough one that I posted. Either it was overlooked or too tough for anyone to respond. Repost...

[syed1]

i guess you would have to be a perfect logician in this case and reason out some things, or maybe they simply talk to each other and ask what color they were wearing since it doesn't say they could not talk...

[marwen]

A crosses with each one and comes back for the next which will equate to them all crossing in exactly 17 min.

if A had to come back for each one, this makes :
A crosses with B : 2 min
A comes back : +1 min
A brings C : +5 min
A comes back : +1 min
A brings D : +10 min

==> this makes 2 + 1 + 5 + 1 + 10 = 19 min

So not correct.

['Abd Al-Maajid]

If I post the answer, that would be cheating...:D

[marwen]

^ why would you think that ? :nervous:

Here's the toughest of all time lol:

The king said the one of you who is smart enough to know the color of his own hoody may live. How would the smartest among them know the color of their hoody was red?

Just a try :

I gess one of the three has to sacrifice, and talk first. His Answer will eventually be : "my hoody is blue", because he sees tow red ones on the other men, that means it remains 1 red and 2 blue --> it's more probable that his one is blue.

He will be killed. And the other 2 men will know that he thought he was blue because he saw them having red hoodies, and thus they know they are red.

(I supposed that the first one considered the probability that 2 blue ones and one red hoody are remaining, and I supposed that the 2 other men are smart)

An useless Addendum:
---------------------
If by chance, the first man said he is red (because he didn't consider the probabilities, or because he knows how the king thinks), then he survives, but this may be more complex for the two others to figure out their colors.
In that case, the second one may say 2 answers :
- - - - - - - 1) the 2nd can say "I'm blue" because, he thinks probably the first man said he is red because one of the 2 others (2nd and 3rd is blue ) (he knows the third is red, so he is the one who might be blue.) so if he considered the probabilities, and asumes that the first man considered the probabilities too, he may give that first answer. and then he is killed.
- - - - - - - - - - - -> In this situation the third man, will know for sure that he is red, he will say : "the second thought he wears blue hoody, because he saw me wearing red one". He may as well try to look smart and ignore the possiblities and say "I'm blue". Because he thinks the answer of the second man was not based on probabilities. In that case he will be killed.
- - - - - - - 2) the second answer of the second man could also be : "I'm red".That's because he also thinks the king is very smart and is messing with them. He will survive.
- - - - - - - - - - - -> In this situation the third man will have two choices/answers : (he can say I'm blue, because, the 2 other men's answers give him not a new information : he knows the 2 others are red, except the new information that may be he is probably blue and that's probably what made the other 2 men think they are red. If he thinks with probabilities he will say "I'm blue" and he is killed. And if he thinks that the king is very malicious he will answer that he wears a red one, and survives.

"A" takes a minute to cross.
"B" takes 2 minutes.
"C" takes 5
and "D" takes 10 minutes

How do they all cross before the bridge collapses?

would it be cheating if I've done this before but with japanese river crossing?

A and B cross together 2 minutes
A returns 2+1 = 3 minutes
C and D cross together 3 + 10 = 13 minutes
B returns 13 + 2 = 15 minutes
A and B cross together 15 + 2 + 17 minutes

^ MashaAllah ! correct brother.

ok they can't talk to each other. and yes it's some in depth logic.

Answer these questions instantly.
U can't take ur time,
answer them immediately . Ok?

1:-u are participating in a race.
U overtake the second person.
What position are u in ?

2:-If u overtake the last person, then u are?

[Innocent Soul]

1. second
2. none can overtake the last person.

[Muslim Woman]

:sl:

1. second
2. none can overtake the last person.

u changed ur answer sis ? :p


here is the explanation :


1st Answer: if u answered that u are 1st,

then u r absolutely wrong!


If u overtake the second person,
u take his place, so u are second!


2nd Answer: if u answered that u are second to last,
then u are wrong again.
Tell me, how can u overtake the last person ?
U're not very good at this, are u ?:p

[Innocent Soul]

It's not just the secong ans. I remembered that someone asked me the same Q and I was wrong so I thought for sometime and posted the correct answers :D

Actually, ikn a race - you can. It's called 'lapping' ... I do this regularly in wipeout HD fury on the PS3 (facepalm).

[Muezzin]

2nd Answer: if u answered that u are second to last,
then u are wrong again.

U're not very good at this, are u ?:p

You can overtake the last person. Say there's a circular track, two laps, you're first, and you are so far ahead of the rest on your first lap that at the start of your second lap you actually overtake the last person in the race, who is still on his first lap. You've lapped him.

EDIT: Oops, I didn't read Scimitar's post above mine. Epic fail on my part.

[Scimitar]

No epic fail - you just reminded me of a real life example... Indycar ;D

retract that epic fail. It's actually an epic success lol

hmm in that case , I am still the first . So , if u answered that u are / I am second to last, then it's wrong .

If the temperature is zero outside today and it's going to be twice as cold tomorrow, how cold will it be?

[tango92]

If the temperature is zero outside today and it's going to be twice as cold tomorrow, how cold will it be?

273 degrees celcius

['Abd Al-Maajid]

^ LOL! No, your answer is incorrect.

[tango92]

its actually correct. if its 0 degress c. then in kelvein it is 273K. so double that is 546k. but in degrees it is 546-273 = 273 degrees c

['Abd Al-Maajid]

0 deg Celsius = 32 deg Fahrenheit
Twice cold is 16 deg Fahrenheit.
16 deg Fahrenheit = -8.88 deg Celsius. :ermm:

[AabiruSabeel]

Using Kelvin gives you the most correct answer because Kelvin is the true temperature scale as it starts from absolute 0.

So if it's 0 C, ie 273.15 K, then twice as cold will be half of 273.15 = 136.575 which is equal to -136.575 C.

[Muhaba]

no, no 1 degree is not twice as cold as 2 degrees (from what i remember)! learn scales of measurements and you'll understand!
